Interesting fact

The ¼ Kopeck coin was minted during the reign of Nicholas II, who was the last emperor of Russia before the Russian Revolution in 1917. The coin features an image of Nicholas II on one side and the Russian coat of arms on the other. Despite being made of copper, the coin was not particularly valuable, with a face value of only ¼ kopeck, which is equivalent to 0.025 rubles. However, due to its historical significance and rarity, some mint-condition coins have sold for thousands of dollars at auction.
