Interesting fact

The Ruble coin , which was minted during the reign of Nicholas I (1826-1831) in the Russian Empire, features an image of the Russian coat of arms on one side and the imperial crown on the other. The coat of arms includes a double-headed eagle, which symbolizes the unity of the Russian Empire and its Orthodox Christian faith. The eagle is also holding a scepter and a globus cruciger, which represent the monarch's authority and power. This design was used on many Russian coins during this period and has become a recognizable symbol of Russian history and culture.
