Comment
Https://www.m-dv.ru/catalog/id,7122/prohod.htmlInteresting fact
The Pattern 5 Kopecks - Pyotr III (Pattern; Eagle on the obverse) 1762 from the Russian Empire is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Peter III, who was the grandson of Peter the Great and ruled Russia for only six months in 1762 before being overthrown and assassinated. This coin is a rare example of a pattern coin that was never officially released into circulation, making it a valuable and unique piece for collectors.
