In the eagle's right talon is a scepter, and in the left, an orb. Below the right talon is the letter «Ф», below the left is «Б». The initials of mintmaster Fedor Blum. The center of the obverse is enclosed within a braided border. At the top is an eight-petal flower, visually indicating the start of the inscription: ЧИСТАГО СЕРЕБРА 4 ЗОЛОТНИКА 21 ДОЛЯ (PURE SILVER 4 ZOLOTNIKS 21 PARTS).
