    Can you please help me out with this one? I came across some literature about it below but I'm not entirely sure if its the same. What do you think is it's worth (if any) considering that it's damaged already.

    "Dated 1824. MOHETA PУБЛЬ • 1824, crowned double-headed imperial eagle facing with wings displayed, holding scepter and orb; coat-of-arms of Moskva framed by Order of St. Andrei Первозванного (the First Called) on breast; above, imperial crown; п-д flanking tail / ЧИCTAГO/CEPEБPA/4 ЗOЛOTHИKA/21 ДOЛЯ/——/C.П.Б. in six lines across field; all within laurel and oak wreath."

    I don't think it's a coin. More likely a commemorative medal.

    VG $45, F $65, VF $160 according to the catalog. It would have reached at least $100 on eBay if there wasn't a hole in it (see completed listings to get price ranges). Personally I hate holed coins, would have paid melt for this.
