Ian Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Another batch of pyatches, this time from Ekaterinburg mint and mixed grade. Still very 3 dimensional coins and difficult to scan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Excellent coins. What is the diameter, if I may ask? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Excellent coins. What is the diameter, if I may ask? They are approximately 4-4.5cm (1.6inch?) depending if they are overstriked or not. On the other hand, thickness does vary, depending on how many strikes or crudeness of striking were performed on it. Average weight is around 50grams or 1.6 ounce, so it IS pretty nasty if you have 1 ruble worth of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted March 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Excellent coins. What is the diameter, if I may ask? The largest of the ones I have is the 1792 from Anninsk Mint at 45mm and weight of 52.2 gms. The heaviest is the 1792 from Ekaterinburg weighing in at 56.7 gms. It's a big 5mm thick slug of copper with a 42.5mm diameter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
