Interesting fact

The 2 Abazi coin from Georgia, minted between 1804 and 1833, is interesting because it was used as a form of currency during a unique period in Georgian history. At that time, Georgia was part of the Russian Empire, and the coin was minted with the Russian Imperial eagle on one side and the Georgian coat of arms on the other. This coin is a tangible reminder of the blending of cultures and political powers that occurred during this period. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's minting process and its relatively small weight of 6.15 grams make it a notable piece of numismatic history.
