Interesting fact

The Kopeck coin with the image of Mikhail I, also known as the "Mikhailovich Kopeck," 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. This coin was significant because it marked a shift away from the previous dynasty, the Rurik dynasty, which had ruled Russia for over 700 years. The Mikhailovich Kopeck was also notable for its silver content, which was rare for coins at that time.
