Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Kopeck coin is that it was issued during the reign of Ivan IV, also known as Ivan the Terrible, who was the first Tsar of Russia and ruled from 1533 to 1584. This coin was minted in Pskov, a city located in the northwestern part of Russia, and features an image of Ivan IV on one side and the Russian coat of arms on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting process was a significant departure from previous coins, which were made of copper or other base metals. The coin's silver content was a symbol of the growing wealth and power of the Russian Empire during Ivan IV's rule.
