Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin , which was minted during the reign of Mikhail I (1636-1643) and made of silver, was used as a means of payment for the Russian Empire's military forces during the Time of Troubles, a period of political instability and conflict in Russia that lasted from 1598 to 1613. Despite its small denomination, the coin played a significant role in the empire's economy and was widely used for everyday transactions.
