Interesting fact
The Pattern 15 Kopecks (Trial Strike) 1956 from Soviet Union (Russia) made of Lead weighing 3.45g is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was created as a trial strike, meaning it was produced in small quantities for testing purposes, and only a few examples are known to exist. This makes it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists and collectors of Soviet-era coins.
