Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 5 Kopecks - Pyotr III (Pattern; Monogram PF) 1762 from Russian Empire made of Silver (.750) weighing 1.17 g is that it was minted during the reign of Peter III, who was the Emperor of Russia for only six months in 1762 before being overthrown and assassinated. Despite his short reign, Peter III's coinage reforms had a lasting impact on Russian numismatics, and this pattern coin is a rare and valuable example of his efforts to modernize the Russian currency.
