Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Kopeck coin is that it was issued during the reign of Mikhail I, also known as Mikhail Romanov, who was the first Tsar of Russia and ruled from 1613 to 1645. He was instrumental in establishing the Romanov dynasty, which would go on to rule Russia for over 300 years. The coin's design and minting were likely overseen by the Tsar himself, making it a unique piece of Russian history.
