Interesting fact

The Mikhail I Kopeck coin was minted during a time of great change in Russia. It was issued during the reign of Mikhail I, who was the first Romanov tsar and ruled from 1618 to 1625.

Despite these challenges, the Mikhail I Kopeck coin remained a stable and trusted form of currency during this time.
