That license plate is Cyrillic, but it isn’t a recent, non-specialised Russian one. Both Greece and Russia use Latin homoglyphs (that is, letters of theirs that look like the Latin alphabet) on their plates so that tourists more familiar with the Latin alphabet can read license plates.

This plate has a Ц, which isn’t in that list.

Which leads me to wonder where it’s actually from. Specialist Russian or one of the old SSRs, maybe?

I don’t know really. I just googled “копейка”. You are right, in Russia we use different plate, maybe it’s from USSR. I’m too young to know about it :)
