Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin with the image of Mikhail I (о М) ND (1618-1625) from the Russian Empire was made of silver, which was a significant departure from the previous copper coins that were used in Russia. This change in material was a result of the government's efforts to combat inflation and stabilize the economy. The use of silver coins also signified the growing influence of Western Europe on Russian currency and trade.
