Hi guys smile.gif ,

There is a commemorative rouble on sale:

To be honest, I donīt like it and would not buy. What confuses me, are black areas between the letters. It may be silver oxide remainings from the casting. I have a better example, so I don't need it, it's just interesting: what do you think about this coin?

PS I paid for mine 3 times less smile.gif

I do not know if this coin is real or not. All I know, there are fakes of this particular coin on the market that are very hard to distinguish from real coins. Almost impossible. I would prefer to buy a slabbed coin.
