Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin , which features Mikhail I and was minted between 1613 and 1617, is considered a rare and valuable collector's item. In fact, it's one of the rarest and most sought-after coins in the history of Russian numismatics. This is because the coin was minted during a time of great turmoil and change in Russia, and many of the coins were either lost or destroyed over the centuries, making surviving examples extremely scarce. As a result, the coin is highly prized by collectors and can fetch high prices at auction.
