Interesting fact

The Pattern Denga - Aleksandr I (Pattern; Small eagle) 1811 from the Russian Empire made of Copper weighing 3.38 g is a rare and valuable coin among collectors. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Alexander I, who was the Emperor of Russia from 1801 until his death in 1825. This coin was part of a series of pattern coins minted during his reign, which were intended to test new designs and metallic compositions for future coinage. The small eagle design on the coin's obverse (front side) was a new design for the denga coinage and was only used for a short period of time, making it a unique and sought-after collector's item.
