Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin , which was minted during the reign of Peter the Great in 1698, features an image of a horseman on the obverse (front side) and a crowned double-headed eagle on the reverse (back side). The horseman is believed to represent the Russian tsar, and the double-headed eagle symbolizes the unity of the Russian Empire. The coin's design was meant to convey the power and strength of the Russian monarchy during that time.
