Interesting fact

The 2 Kopecks coin from the Soviet Union was designed by sculptor and engraver, Ivan Dubasov, who was a prominent artist during the Soviet era. Dubasov's design features a portrait of Vladimir Lenin, the founder of the Soviet Union, on the obverse (front) side of the coin, while the reverse (back) side features a depiction of the Soviet Union's coat of arms, which includes a hammer and sickle, a star, and a wreath of wheat. The coin's design was meant to symbolize the unity and strength of the Soviet people under the leadership of Lenin and the Communist Party.
