Instead the coins will be minted from a cheeper metal. The General Director of Goznak stated that banks and stores are still using kopek in their daily operations with clients. The official announcement was published in “Rossiiskaya Gazeta” (Russian Gazette)- a newspaper established by the Russian Federation Government. http://dig4coins.com

You can’t buy thing with One Kopek Coins or Pennies! More expensive to make than worth. Only logical thing to do is stop minting them!
