Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin , which features Feodor III Alexeyevich and was minted between 1676 and 1682, is notable for being one of the first coins to feature a Russian ruler's portrait. Prior to this, Russian coins typically featured the Moscow Kremlin or other symbols, but Feodor III's reign marked a shift towards featuring the ruler's image on the currency. This change was likely influenced by European coinage, which had long featured portraits of monarchs.
