Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Vladislav Zigimontovych, who was the Tsar of Russia from 1610 to 1612. This coin is a rare example of a gold kopeck, as most kopecks were made of copper or silver. Additionally, the Moscow mint, where this coin was produced, was only operational for a short period of time during the early 17th century, making this coin even more unique.
