From a total mintage of only 450 pieces of each metal. The son of Czar Alexander III and Empress Maria Feodorovna, Nicholas was a gentle and approachable man, but according to contemporaries, contradictory in his moods. A steadfast believer in the divine rights of rulers he stubbornly resisted change in an era when common sense demanded pragmatism.
