I also thank you for this lesson I will contact the auctioneer and send him his coin back. Fortunately I haven´t payed for it yet....

Here are some scans from the edge. Also another scan (with a higher resolution) from the coin. The surface is covered with (in German so called) "Gusspickel". Maybe it is a cast - produced for a museum perhaps?

Hello Everybody, I have recently won the auction for the the attached coin. It´s diameter is 47,57mm. I am worried about it´s weight: only 38,9 Gramms. I don´t have much experience with russian coins (I have just started to collect them) but I don´t think, that this Underweight can be regular?

Hello Everybody, I have just registered myself at this forum and now I want to introduce myself. My name is Andreas and I live in Karlsruhe / Germany. I am a member in two coin forums in Germany, where I had contact with Sigistenz, who told me, that this forum here is on of the few forums with an exclusive section for Russian coins. So here I am. I am collecting Medals from the “Jugendstil” era, German coins, specialy from Baden. Since a few month I am interested in Russian coins from the Imperial era ( 5 and 10 Kopeks). Andreas
