"Mint Master" initials. Mint master was a functionary who was responsible for the whole coins production process. There were a lot of them, in different cities, like Moscow, Ekaterinburg and others.

B C = Vladimir Smirnov, mint master from the Saint Petersburg mint, so you also know where this coin was minted.

 

Sorry but the 1757 5 kopek coin that you have isn't real. Please return it if possible.

 

1000 roubles 1919 - is a note of the Great Don Army (one of a self-declared states during the Civil War in Russia). The Great Don Army was founded in 18 May 1918 as an independent state. It was an anti-bolshevik parliament's republic.
The Great Don Army was a part of the White (anti-bolshevik) movement. This country was defeated and liquidated in 1920.

 

Many thanks, taxidermist; I had no idea what that meant. The coin came to me with some others from a flea-market shop in Tokyo a few days ago ... most of my coins are Japanese.

Thanks for the info on the 5 kopeks, I haven't been able to find any info on it. Please tell me more.

I won't be returning it, paid $20 from a guy who usually gives me good deals. It's a really neat peice in hand, even if it is a copy.

 

I found some Imperial Russia looking coins. I haven't looked them up yet. Thought I would share anyways. Sorry, they are not very clear pictures.

 

Only 3 seem to be imperial coins. There are 3 early soviet coins, and 2 from Yugoslavia.

 

Indeed. I noticed the same.

 

Two in the top photo are from Yugoslavia. The one on the far right, and the one on the bottom. Both dated 1925, one is 50 para, the other 1 Dinar.
I can't tell if either have the lightning bolt mintmark at the bottom of the reverse signifying they were struck at Poissy.
