Tsar & Emperor - Russia's Most Famous Leaders Pair
Step into the history of Imperial Russia with this exclusive two-coin collection featuring genuine silver wire money from two of its most iconic rulers.
Ivan IV “the Terrible”
Russia’s first Tsar, Ivan reshaped the nation with sweeping centralisation, the first standing army, and a legacy that still echoes through history.
Peter I “the Great”
A great reformer, Peter modernised Russia as its first Emperor with shipyards, newspapers, military victories, and the creation of Saint Petersburg, a city to rival Europe’s greatest.
What’s Included
Each coin was hand-struck from silver wire — a minting method used until the early 18th century. (Even the word ruble comes from rubit, “to cut”.)
- 1 Denga from the time of Ivan the Terrible (1547–1584) - the first ever Tsar of Russia
- 1 Kopek issued under Peter the Great (1682–1717) - Russia's very first Emperor
