Interesting fact

The 1 Kopeck coin from the Soviet Union, minted between 1924 and 1925, features a unique design that reflects the country's transition from a monarchical to a socialist state. The coin's obverse side depicts a stylized image of the Soviet Union's coat of arms, which includes a hammer and sickle, symbols of the working class and peasantry. The reverse side features a wreath of wheat and other grains, representing the country's agricultural sector. Interestingly, the coin's designer, Ivan Dubas, was a prominent sculptor and artist who also created several other notable works, including a statue of Lenin in Moscow's Red Square. Despite its relatively small denomination, the 1 Kopeck coin remains a popular collector's item due to its historical significance and unique design.
