Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin from the Russian Empire, made of silver and weighing 0.28g, is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Peter the Great, who was instrumental in modernizing Russia and transforming its economy. The coin's design features an image of Peter I on one side and the Russian coat of arms on the other, symbolizing the country's shift towards Westernization and the importance of the monarchy during that time.
