Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Kopeck - Mikhail I (о М) ND (1618-1625) from Russian Empire made of Silver (.960) weighing 0.47 g is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Russia. Mikhail I, also known as Mikhail Romanov, was the first Tsar of the Romanov dynasty, which ruled Russia for over 300 years. His reign marked the beginning of a new era for Russia, as the country began to modernize and expand its borders. The coin itself is a symbol of this period of transformation, as it features an image of Mikhail I on one side and the Russian coat of arms on the other. Despite its small size, this coin played an important role in the economy of the time and remains a valuable piece of Russian history today.
