Tane

I allmost have one. A russian 25 Rouble of 1909 (1917) with number 1234562.

I bet mr. Stupitzin drunk too much vodka..

You all have so nice coins

Today i received these from an Austrian coindealer:

Hungary, 5 Korona 1907 KB

Austria, 5 Corona 1909

The mailman actuall only brought a note which told me to go to post-office for the coins... :rofl:

5 Roubles 1903 АP

This is the smallest coin of the new Russian gold standard, which was adopted in 1897. The serie consisted of 5, 7½, 10 and 15 Rouble coins. 7½ and 15 Roubles were same size as the older 5 and 10 Roubles(20 & 40 francs) and they were made in one year only, 1897, in quite large quantity though. The coins depict emperor Nicholas II and Russian imperial eagle.

Composition: Gold 900/000

Weight: 4,3g

Diameter: mm

AP = Alexander Redko (1901-1905)

2 Kopek 1801 EM

1 Kopek 1799 EM

Denga 1798 EM

These stylish but simple coins were minted in Jekaterinburg from 1797 to 1801. Other mints were Annensk (AM) and Kolyvan (KM). The letter on the coins is Pavel's monogram, a cyrillic "P".

Time for more coin "spamming".

Yep, i'll start tomorrow I have to go to sleep, it is midnight in here.

No problem. You should also be able to move the existing posts into the proper areas.

I am doing it right now

I have added all the sub forums to the Russian Virtual Coin Museum

Great! Thank you

But but but... aren't you the forum leader? ?

 

Hehehe.

I cant do such things... Administrators are for that

I wanted the sub folders that we used to have Tane That was really a great one

Have to ask somebody about them. They really were great.

OMG damn!!! That's nice!!!

Oh, if i would have known that before, i could have put one in the letter i sent to you..

Yes! A lot of pictures! Lots and lots and even more please!

Recent Goldberg auctions. Some of the greatest Russian coins ever offered in this auction. You can stare at it all day long... I am pretty shocked at the prices they are going at, not including the commission fees.

 

Initially they were on eBay as well.

Well, on the coin the names are spelled "Kopijka" or "Kopijok" and "H(/G)rivnja".

See this website, it has an answer for allmost every question of yours: http://www.coins2001.narod.ru/nis/ukr/eyear.htm

Grr... I want to change the title so that it will fit like yours Tane, but I still can't figure out how And I have to change the subheading to the first silver commemorative coin...

Done

lol I should have googled, but yea, it seems that they had declared independence at one point before...but why call themselves the Republic of Tatarstan... Now it seems that it is a federal subject of Russia...

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tatarstan

 

Honestly, I thought it was surprising, as Russia so far has minted large precious metal coins to important themes, or cities, as such the "protect the world species" and "300th anniversary of st petersburg". I am guessing that Tatarstan is pretty important to Russia in many ways...

There are 21 republics in Russia, for example the Karelian Republic, which is our neighbour. See:

(Grrr... I still can't figure out how to use the quote function Tried to quote Sir Sisu )

 

Yes, they are ridiciously expensive nowadays, I don't know what is causing them to explode in values within just TWO years

 

I'm assuming that the Russians are getting rich nowadays...

Yes, and the old russian coins are becoming very popular. We have to hurry before they get way too expensive

But Tatarstan is supposed to be an independent country!

 

Nope, it is one of the republics which form Russian Federation.

I lost all my saved addresses.  I like to keep them on hand for quick sending of contest prizes, giveaways, and purchases.

 

So, PM me your address and I will send you a little something.  I stop it when I have what I need. 

 

There's plenty of coins/notes in the prize bag still so, whatever you get will be a surprise.

Oh and make a post in this thread so I can keep easy track of who I have please.

 

Thanks.

 

Did i get it right? Just by telling you my adress, i get something for free?

This is a very nice place

I'd say you have 2893 or 11378 mp3's

A great coin! I want one too!

The first Imperial Russian Commemorative coin ever minted in Saint Petersburg.

Actually it is the third one

The earlier ones were:

5 Kopeks 1757 СПM (Struck to commemorate the introduction of new technology of producing coins out of cannon at Sestroretsk mint, extremely rare coin. It is similar to the normal EII-prjanik)

5 Roubles 1832 (Struck to commemorate the gold found at the Kolyvan mines)

Okay. I think it can't be anything "real". Since people often don't know russian coins too well, it is easy to make such coins and sell them for big $$.

I think it might be somekind of a fantasy issue. How much did you pay for it? Are you sure it is made of Gold? Does it really weigh 15,5 gramms? Where did you buy it?

Composition: Silver 900/000

Weight: 20g

Diameter: 35mm

Mintmasters:

АГ = Apolon Grasgov (1883-1899)
