Interesting fact

The Alexey Mikhailovich Rouble, minted in 1654 during the Russian Empire, is a unique coin with a fascinating history. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted using a technique called "novodel," which means "new coin" in Russian. This technique involved re-minting old coins to create new ones, and the Alexey Mikhailovich Rouble was one of the first coins to be minted using this method. This process not only helped to conserve resources but also allowed the Russian Empire to create new coins with unique designs and inscriptions, making it a significant piece of numismatic history.
