Interesting fact

The 3 Kopecks coin from the Russian Empire featuring Nicholas II (without mintmark) was minted during a time of great turmoil in Russia. The coin was produced between 1915 and 1917, a period marked by World War I, economic hardship, and political unrest. In fact, the coin was minted just a few years before the Russian Revolution of 1917, which led to the abdication of Nicholas II and the establishment of the Soviet Union. Despite the tumultuous times, the coin remains a popular collector's item among numismatists today.
