Interesting fact

The Alexey Mikhailovich Kopeck coin from the Russian Empire, which was minted between 1645 and 1650, features an image of a horseman on the obverse (front) side, which is believed to represent the Russian tsar Alexey I. The horseman is depicted riding a horse and holding a scepter, symbolizing the power and authority of the Russian monarchy. This design was a common feature on many Russian coins during this period and has become a recognizable symbol of Russian coinage.
