Interesting fact
The Ruble - Pyotr II 1727 from the Russian Empire was the first coin to feature the image of a Russian monarch, with Pyotr II depicted on the obverse (front side). This was a significant departure from previous Russian coins, which had traditionally featured the Russian coat of arms or other symbols. The inclusion of the monarch's image on the coin was a nod to the increasing power and influence of the Russian monarchy at the time.
