Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Pyotr I / Ivan V (Novodel) ND (1682-1689) coin from the Russian Empire is that it was minted during a time of significant economic and political change in Russia. The coin was issued during the reign of Peter the Great, who was known for his efforts to modernize and westernize Russia. This coin was part of a series of reforms aimed at standardizing the Russian currency and promoting trade and commerce. Despite being made of gold, the coin was not widely accepted outside of Russia, and its value was not consistent with its weight in gold, reflecting the complex economic dynamics of the time.
