Comment
Averse stamp № 23; reverse stamp № 28.Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin , which was issued during the reign of Peter the Great in 1702, was the first coin to feature the image of a Russian ruler. Prior to this, Russian coins had featured the image of the Russian coat of arms, but Peter the Great's reign marked a shift towards more personalized coinage. This coin is considered a rare and valuable collector's item, and its silver content makes it particularly sought after by numismatists.
