Interesting fact
The 1 Kopeck coin was the first coin to feature the image of a Russian emperor, with Nikolai I's portrait on the obverse (front side). This was a significant departure from previous Russian coins, which had traditionally featured the Russian coat of arms or other symbols. The inclusion of the emperor's portrait was seen as a way to emphasize the power and authority of the Russian monarchy.
