Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Kopeck - Mikhail I (Pskov; ПС) ND (1617-1627) from Russian Empire made of Silver (.960) is that it was minted during the reign of Mikhail I, also known as Mikhail Romanov, who was the first Tsar of Russia and ruled from 1613 to 1645. This coin was minted in Pskov, a city located in the northwestern part of Russia, and it features an image of Mikhail I on one side and the Russian coat of arms on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting process was a significant departure from the previous copper coins that were used in Russia, and it marked a shift towards the use of more valuable metals in the country's currency.
