Interesting fact

The 10 Kopecks coin from the Russian Empire, minted during the reign of Paul I (1798-1799), features an image of the Emperor on the obverse side, while the reverse side bears the coat of arms of Russia. What's interesting is that this coin was minted during a time of economic hardship and political instability in Russia, and its production was discontinued shortly after Paul I's assassination in 1801. As a result, coins from this era are now considered rare and highly sought after by collectors.
