Magnetom Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 I collected this coin after a trip to the flea market last year and I'm curious as to the information regarding this coin. It has some Russian Cyrillic engraved around the edge of the coin as well, I've heard that these coins are proof coins and I've also heard that these were circulated, I've seen kopeks a few years earlier having a more copper color appearance rather than this.

sigistenz Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 This is 5 rubles showing the Uspensky Cathedral, Moscow. The coin is not proof, otherwise the surfaces would look mirror like. 2.6 million were struck, the metal composition is copper-nickel. The value does not exceed the price tag. Sigi .

Thank you for setting the record straight, i was having difficulty finding information about the coin because i kept finding so many conflicting things.
