Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin , which was issued during the reign of Peter the Great in 1697, was part of a series of coins that were minted to celebrate the victory of the Russian Empire over Sweden in the Great Northern War. The coin features an image of Peter the Great on one side and the Russian coat of arms on the other. It's interesting to note that this coin was minted during a time of significant change and modernization in Russia, as Peter the Great was known for his efforts to Westernize and modernize the country.
