We at the Russian forum don't really know what to think of these:

Is anyone here able to shed some light on what was going on at French and German mints? Are these fakes, fantasies? Are 1848 french essai 10 centimes common? Are there known strikes on foreign coins?

 

Why would anyone want to make an off metal strike of a Thaler, and use a huge Russian coin as a host?
