Russian Empire, Emperor Alexander I (1801 - 1825), 2 kopecks, 1810 year, Copper, 13,65 g, C#118.1, bitkin 343
In 1810, the Russian Empire, under the rule of Emperor Alexander I, was in a period of military preparation and political manoeuvring, anticipating the looming conflict with Napoleon. The threat of Napoleon's expansion across Europe pushed Russia to strengthen its military forces and forge strategic alliances. Domestically, the Empire's economy was heavily reliant on agriculture and the labour of serfs, with the feudal system playing a key role in its stability. The 2 Kopecks coin from 1810 is a reflection of Russia's relatively stable currency system during this time, used for everyday transactions across the vast Empire. This period also marked a time of social and military reform, as Russia braced for the events that would unfold in the Napoleonic Wars.
