Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Kopeck - Peter I 1715 from the Russian Empire made of Silver weighing 0.28 g is that it was minted during the reign of Peter the Great, who was the ruler of Russia from 1682 to 1725. Peter the Great implemented numerous reforms aimed at modernizing Russia, and the minting of this coin was part of his efforts to establish a uniform currency system across the empire. The coin's design features an image of Peter I on one side and the Russian coat of arms on the other, symbolizing the power and authority of the Russian Empire during that time.
