Special facts

The 25-kopek coin of 1827–1831: under Nicholas I the value began to be marked as “25 kopeks” instead of the old “polupoltinnik”; 1.86 million were issued in 1827.

About the period

The coins of Nicholas I belong to the time of the Kankrin reform: in 1839 the silver rouble became the main monetary unit, and copper coins began to be issued in terms of silver. In the same reign Russia became the first country in the world to strike platinum coins for circulation. More about the period “Nicholas I”, 1825 — 1855

Coins and banknotes of these years: 1827, 1828, 1829, 1830, 1831
