Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Roubles - Nicholas II 1898-1911 coin is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Russia. The coin was introduced in 1898, just a year after the Russian government had implemented a new monetary reform aimed at stabilizing the country's economy, which had been struggling with inflation and currency devaluation. Despite these efforts, the coin's value would eventually be affected by the economic and political upheaval of the time, including the Russian Revolution of 1917, which led to the abdication of Nicholas II and the establishment of the Soviet Union.
