Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Kopeck coin featuring Boris Godunov is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Russia. Boris Godunov was a powerful tsar who ruled from 1598 to 1605, and his reign was marked by significant political and economic reforms. The coin itself is made of silver, which was a valuable and highly sought-after metal at the time, and its design features an image of Godunov on one side and the Russian coat of arms on the other. Despite its age, the coin remains a popular collector's item and a fascinating piece of Russian history.
