Some Russian error coins

[gxseries]

Thought I'd post it here since Russian error coins are somewhat under appreciated and or underrated. Got them a while back but never got around to properly photographing them.

 

1750 denga, double struck

 

 

1773 5 kopek (EM), excess cud

 

 

 

1812 2 kopek (KM), lamination

 

 

1821 2 kopek (EM), multiple strike

 

 

 

Now this one is interesting - I'm actually not too sure if this is multiple strike or something else.

 

1930 5 kopek, rotation error

 

 

I know it's just a "normal" Soviet coin but when was the last time you see an error coin like this?

 

1994 50 ruble commemorating sandy mole rat, off center core

 

 

I really thought the off center core is neat! Matches with another off center core coin that I have.

 

Please feel free to share your Russian error coins.

Yea the off-center core looks amazing!

By the way, what camera are you using to photograph the coins (pics look incredible)?

It's an old camera that I got about 5 years ago. A Pentax camera and it's not one of those expensive DSLR camera. Believe you can pick one up for less than a hundred dollar these days or even less on ebay as second hand. What's unique about this camera is that it allows you to take a zoom up to 1cm with it's super macro. I believe I snapped close to 9000 photos on this camera alone.

 

I'm sure some avid photographers believe DSLR will do a better job but to purchase one and do a proper setup... I'm very happy with what I have.
