Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin with the name of Peter I and Ivan V (1682-1696) was the first coin to feature the image of a Russian ruler. This was a significant departure from the previous coins that had featured the image of the Russian Orthodox Church's patron saint, St. George. The introduction of the ruler's image on the coin was a symbol of the growing power and influence of the Russian monarchy during that time.
