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. This coin was part of a series of currency reforms implemented by Peter the Great to stabilize the Russian economy and promote trade. The coin's design features an image of Peter the Great on one side and the Russian coat of arms on the other, symbolizing the power and authority of the Russian Empire during that time.
