Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Rouble - Pyotr III (Pattern; Cruciform monograms) 1762 from Russian Empire made of Silver (.802) weighing 25.85 g is that it was minted during the reign of Peter III, who was the Emperor of Russia for only six months in 1762 before being overthrown and assassinated. Despite his short reign, Peter III's coinage reforms had a lasting impact on Russian numismatics, and this particular coin is a rare and valuable example of his efforts.
