Interesting fact

The Pattern Rouble - Alexander III (Pattern) 1886 from the Russian Empire is interesting because it was never officially released into circulation. Instead, it was only produced as a pattern coin, which means it was created as a prototype or sample for a potential new design, but it was ultimately never adopted or widely produced. This makes it a rare and unique coin among collectors.
