nickb562 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Hi, I'm Nick and I have some questions on two Russian coins. Last September my dad passed away and while cleaning out his garage I found these two Russian coins and I was wondering if anybody knew anything about them (Fake or not, $ value, etc.). I'm not sure of how my dad got these but I know he did go on a trip to Russia around 20 years ago. I'm really interested in these coins and I need some help and sorry about the bad quality but it was the best i could do with the 100kb cap.

gxseries Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 First coin looks normal. Second is a fantasy coin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

actelios Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 The first is a 'common' 5 kopecks, 1770, most probably a EM (Ekaterinenburg mint), look the other side and read the letters printed. it looks quite well preserved. the second one, i really doubt it is original, but if it is, you are really a lucky man buddy, this is a 5 kopecks of special issues in copper, squared . i cannot see clearly the pictures, but look at the chest of the eagle, you can find the emblme of moscow or not. In both cases, the coin is an excessively rare one ! best compliment, if ... really original, giuseppe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
