| Additional information |
The original 1832 1½ rouble/10 zloty was struck at St. Petersburg for circulation in the Kingdom of Poland, a denomination bridging the ruble-zloty exchange rate imposed after the failed November Uprising of 1830. This 2009 copper piece is a modern fantasy restrike — it has no official issuing authority behind the "Russian Federation" attribution and was never a sanctioned state emission, placing it firmly in the category of numismatic curiosities rather than coinage proper.
