The denomination is indicated on three lines (with quatrefoils to the left and right), followed by the monetary unit and the year of minting: ✤ 2 ✤ KOPEYKI 1850. Below is a divider of two ornamental lines with a dot between them. Immediately beneath it is the abbreviation 'E.M.' (Ekaterinburg Mint). - Obverse
The center of the obverse features a double-headed eagle — the coat of arms of the Russian Empire. Both eagle heads bear crowns, with a larger third crown between 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). The shield is surrounded by the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the First-Called. The coats of arms on the wings are: Left wing: Polish, Taurida, Finnish. Right wing: Kazan, Astrakhan, Siberian. The right claw holds a scepter, and the left holds an orb. The rim is decorated with denticles pointing inward.
