Interesting fact

The "Russian Code" coin has a unique feature - it contains a hidden message in the form of a cipher. The cipher is located on the obverse of the coin, and it uses a combination of letters and numbers to spell out a phrase. The phrase is "СПАСИБО РОССИЯ" (SPASIBO ROSSIYA), which means "THANK YOU, RUSSIA" in English. The cipher is a nod to Russia's rich history of cryptography and code-breaking, and it adds an extra layer of interest and complexity to the coin's design.
