Interesting fact

The Kopeck coin , which features Mikhail I and was minted between 1636 and 1645, is considered a rare and valuable coin among collectors. It's believed that only a small number of these coins were minted, and many of them have been lost or destroyed over time, making them highly sought after by collectors of Russian imperial coins.
