In early 18th-century Russia, during a time of rapid change, Peter the Great introduced the 1705 beard tax, compelling men to shave like their Western European counterparts. Those who paid the tax were given beard tokens, like this one, to present to city guards as proof of payment. This token symbolizes the freedom to proudly wear a beard in defiance of the tax, making it a fascinating relic of a bygone era.
