Interesting fact
The Pattern 10 Kopecks coin was designed by sculptor and engraver, Ivan Dubas, and features an image of a Soviet farmer and a hammer and sickle on the obverse, with the denomination "10 копеек" (10 kopecks) on the reverse. The coin was minted in 1956 as a trial strike, which means that it was produced in limited quantities and was not intended for circulation. As a result, the Pattern 10 Kopecks coin is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
