The denomination (with stars to the left and right) and monetary unit are indicated on two lines: ⋆ 1 ⋆ KOPEYKA Below, there is a decorative divider in the form of two curved lines with a small circle between them. Under the lines is the mint mark 'S.P.B.'. The central part is separated from the rest of the design by a circle of dots.

The center of the obverse is occupied by the lesser coat of arms of the Russian Empire—a double-headed eagle. Both heads of the eagle bear crowns, and a third, larger crown is placed between them. All three crowns are connected by a ribbon. 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 left). Around the shield is the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the First-Called. The coats of arms on the wings (four on each wing): Kazan, Polish, Taurida, Astrakhan, Siberian, Georgian, Kiev and Novgorod, Vladimir. In its right talon, the eagle holds a scepter, and in its left—an orb. Along the rim at the top and bottom are two semicircular cartouches, connected by a diamond-shaped ornament. The upper cartouche bears the raised inscription: MEDNAYA ROSSISKAYA MONETA The lower cartouche, over a ribbon, bears the incuse line: ODNA KOPEYKA
