Obverse
The central part depicts the State Emblem of the Russian Empire — a double-headed eagle, its heads crowned with two coronets, and 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. In its right talon, the eagle holds a scepter, and in its left, an orb. Below the right talon is the letter "A", and below the left, the letter "I". The initials of mintmaster Alexander Ivanov. The central part is enclosed within a circular border. Outside the border, along the edge, are circular inscriptions: above the eagle — "1803", the year of mintage. To the right of the date is a small circle with a raised dot in its center. Around the heraldic eagle is the circular inscription — "POLUPOLTINNIK". The rim is decorated with denticles.
