Interesting fact
The 25 kopecks coin from the Russian Empire featuring Nicholas II (1895-1901) was minted during a time of significant economic and political change in Russia. The coin's silver content, which was 90% pure silver, was a significant departure from the previous copper-based coins that had been used in Russia for centuries. This change in metal composition was a result of the government's efforts to modernize the country's currency and economy. Despite the coin's silver content, it was still widely used in everyday transactions and was considered a symbol of the Russian Empire's economic and political power.
