Interesting fact
The 20 kopecks coin from the Soviet Union (Russia) that was minted between 1931 and 1934 features a unique design that reflects the country's transition from a rural, agricultural society to an industrialized, urbanized society. The coin's obverse (front side) features a depiction of a farmer and a worker, symbolizing the union of agriculture and industry, while the reverse (back side) features a stylized image of a tractor, representing the country's growing mechanization and industrialization. This design was meant to promote the idea of collectivization and the modernization of Soviet society under the leadership of Joseph Stalin.
