Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin , which features Pyotr I (also known as Peter the Great) and Ivan V, is notable for its unique design. It was minted during a time when Russia was transitioning from using copper coins to silver coins, and as a result, it has a distinctive "split personality" design, with Pyotr I depicted on one side and Ivan V on the other. This makes it a fascinating piece of numismatic history, as it reflects the changing economic and political landscape of Russia during that time period.
