Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin , which was minted during the reign of Mikhail I (also known as Michael I) in the 17th century, features an image of the Russian tsar on one side and an image of the Moscow coat of arms on the other. The Moscow coat of arms features a image of St. George slaying a dragon, which is a symbol of the city of Moscow and has been used on various Russian coins throughout history.
