Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Ruble - Aleksandr I 1802-1805 from Russian Empire made of Silver (.868) weighing 20.73 g is that it was minted during the reign of Alexander I, who was the Emperor of Russia from 1801 to 1825. This coin was part of a series of coinage reforms implemented by Alexander I in an effort to stabilize the Russian economy and promote trade. The use of silver in the coin's composition was a deliberate choice to increase the coin's value and make it more durable than previous copper coins.
