Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Vasiliy IV (also known as Vasily Shuisky), who was the Tsar of Russia from 1606 to 1610. He was known for his efforts to centralize power and reform the government, and this coin may have been minted as part of those efforts. Additionally, the fact that it was made of silver (.960) suggests that it was a valuable and highly sought-after coin at the time.
