Comment
Ivan VI Antonovich (Ioann Antonovich) was nominally Emperor of Russia in 1740-1741.Interesting fact
The Grivennik - Ivan VI 1741 coin was minted during the reign of Ivan VI, who was the Emperor of Russia from 1740 to 1741. He was only a few months old when he ascended to the throne, making him the youngest monarch in Russian history. Despite his short reign, the coin bearing his name has become a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
