Peter the Great ruled the Tsardom of Russia and later the Russian Empire from 7th May 1682 until his death in 1725, jointly ruling before 1696 with his elder half-brother, Ivan V. Through a number of successful wars, he expanded the Tsardom into a much larger empire that became a major European power. He led a cultural revolution that replaced some of the traditionalist and medieval social and political systems with ones that were modern, scientific, Westernized and based on the Enlightenment. This special set contains a historical 1 Kopek silver coin, issued during the reign of Peter the Great, as well as a 500 Rubles banknote, the so-called ÄöÑPetyaÄöÑ, the most valuable Russian banknote that has ever been issued.
