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, which was a significant departure from the previous coins that had featured the Moscow Kremlin or the Russian eagle. This change in design was a deliberate attempt to promote the image of the Russian tsar as a powerful and authoritative leader, and it marked the beginning of a new era in Russian coinage.
