The central part features the denomination 'MONETA RUBL' in two lines. The imperial crown is placed in the upper part of the coin (above the denomination). Below the denomination is a decorative divider consisting of two pointed lines with a dot in a circle between them. Below the divider, the year of minting '1842' and the abbreviation 'S.P.B.' (Saint Petersburg Mint) are indicated on two lines. Along the left edge of the coin is a laurel branch, and along the right edge is an oak branch. At the base, the branches are tied together with a ribbon, the knot of which forms an elegant bow. The rim of the coin is decorated with raised denticles.
Obverse
The central part depicts the State Emblem of the Russian Empire – a double-headed eagle, its heads crowned with two imperial crowns, with a third, larger crown above them. On the eagle's breast is the coat of arms of Moscow – a shield depicting St. George the Victorious on horseback, slaying a serpent with a long spear (the serpent's head is to the right). Surrounding the shield is the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the First-Called. The titular coats of arms are displayed on the wings: on the right – Kazan, Astrakhan, and Siberian; on the left – Polish, Taurican, and Finnish. In its right talon, the eagle holds a scepter, and in its left – an orb. Below the right talon is the letter 'A', below the left – the letter 'Ch'. The initials of Mintmaster Alexei Chadov. The center of the obverse is enclosed within a thin, continuous braided border. In the upper part, an eight-petalled flower visually indicates the beginning of the inscription: CHISTAGO SEREBRA 4 ZOLOTNIKA 21 DOLIA. The rim is decorated with denticles pointing towards the center.
