Interesting fact
The Polupoltinnik - Pavel I 1798-1800 coin from the Russian Empire is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Paul I, who was known for his eccentricities and reforms. One of his reforms was the introduction of a new currency system, which included the Polupoltinnik coin, which was equal to half a ruble. This coin was made of silver and weighed 5.18 grams, making it a valuable and sought-after collector's item today.
