Reverse
The center of the reverse is occupied by the coat of arms of the Russian Empire—a double-headed eagle, both heads of which bear crowns. A third, larger crown is above and between them. On the eagle's chest 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). A chain with the Order of St. Andrew the First-Called surrounds the shield. In the eagle's right talon is a scepter, in the left—an orb. Under the right talon is the letter "E", under the left—the letter "I". The initials of mintmaster Egor Ivanov. Above the eagle is the minting year—"1754". Around the eagle, facing inward, is the text: ПОЛУПОЛТИННИКЪ•
