Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin with Mikhail I (о М) ND (1618-1625) from the Russian Empire was made of silver, which was a common material for coins at that time. However, what's interesting is that the silver content in this coin was not very high, only about 0.49 grams. This is relatively low compared to other silver coins from the same period, which often had a higher silver content. Despite this, the coin still maintained its value and was widely used in trade and commerce during its time.
