Interesting fact
The 10 Kopecks coin from Transnistria, made of Aluminium and weighing 1 gram, is one of the smallest coins in the world. In fact, it's considered a "micronation" coin, meaning it's issued by a small, unrecognized country or territory. Transnistria, located between Moldova and Ukraine, declared independence in 1990 but is not recognized as a sovereign state by any country, including Moldova and Ukraine. Despite this, Transnistria has its own government, currency, and postal system, and issues coins like this 10 Kopecks piece.
