Yesterdays best find. It wasn't that easy to research which coin this is and especially from which year. But I finally did manage to do that, it is Russian kopek from 1710, not so common find :) I have found few younger kopeks before but never this old.

Edit. This actually might be from 1713, not quite sure.

In Russia, before Tsar Peter 1 (1682-1721), dates were written on coins with letters, and only under Peter appeared Arabic numbers.
