Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design of a Russian Blue Cat, which is not a common motif on coins. The use of a cat as the main image on a coin is unusual and adds to the coin's collectibility. Additionally, the use of copper-nickel as the material and the weight of 24.8 grams make it a substantial and valuable coin for collectors.
