Hello all,

Please find images of a Peter The Great Kopeck I bought via auction.
I believe I have a fake of the 1716 /1717 variants. due to the design of St. George's foot, the horses hock and cannon (leg) and the spear.

Please let me know what you think. Below are the resources I used, if you have any more please link me.

Still practicing my camera skills!

Thanks!

There are multiple varieties of this kopek that still need to be researched and documented.

I am certain that it's genuine - you may need a specialized catalog for this.

Grinya Gxseries!

Thank you for your help! I thought only 1716 and 1717 had that inscription. I was not careful enough.

I bought 4 kopeck coins in a nice looking set. I will post the other 3 coins shortly. (peter I, michael I, feodor I and Ivan "The terrible")
Bought the set for 150$ CAD.

Thanks for this information.

No, such inscription was introduced in 1709
