Comment
Interesting fact
The Kopeck coin , which was minted during the reign of Vladislav Zigimontovych in Moscow between 1610 and 1612, is notable for its unique design. On one side, it features an image of a horseman holding a spear and a shield, while on the other side, it depicts the Moscow coat of arms, which includes a image of St. George slaying a dragon. This design was meant to symbolize the power and strength of the Russian Empire, and it was a departure from the more traditional designs found on earlier Russian coins.
