Footnote
Alexander I was the Emperor of Russia who ruled during Napoleonic Wars. When Napoleon and his Grand Army of 600,000 men invaded Russia in June 1812, the conflict that ensued was called the Patriotic War by the Russians because of the outstanding endurance and resilience was displayed by the Russian people. The conflict also inspired one of the of the most interesting types of coins in Russian numismatics – the Battle of Borodino commemoratives. Ultimately, Alexander I helped form the coalition that defeated Napoleon.
