Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Kopeck coin is that it was minted during the reign of Ivan IV, also known as Ivan the Terrible, who was the first Tsar of Russia and ruled from 1547 to 1584. During his reign, Ivan IV implemented a number of reforms, including the creation of a new currency system, which included the Kopeck coin. The coin was made of silver and had a distinctive design, featuring the image of a crown on one side and the letters "I-DM" on the other, which stood for "Ivan, Tsar of Moscow." The Kopeck coin was an important part of Russian currency for many years and is still sought after by collectors today.
