Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Kopeck coin is that it was minted during the reign of Mikhail I, who was the first Tsar of Russia and ruled from 1618 to 1625. This coin was a standard circulation coin during that time and was made of silver with a purity of .960, which is quite high. Additionally, it weighs 0.41 grams, which is a relatively small weight for a coin.
