World Coins: Your Newest Acquisition!

I got this today, and I have very few of this type, where do I find which mint mark? There are two listed, I'm assuming they are Moscow and Saint Petersburg.

Is there a P to right 1924 date? When I zoom in on date it looks like their one there.?

 

I saw that too, but one mint mark should be a tp and the other 2 Cyrillic letters ..

 

Picked up at my local coin shop.

 

As far as I know (not 100% sure), they were minted in Leningrad and London. Check the edge inscription out; there should be some mintmaster sign. "TP" indicates London (1924 only) while "ПЛ" would be Leningrad.

Nice 1888 10 Mark looks MS 60 or better;-)

 

Thanks Angelo, graded MS62, I personally think MS60/61 but I won't argue.....

 

I was going to say MS 63 . By a photo grade. Won't argue with MS 62

 

Thanks Christian, I didn't know what the mints were london and leningrad, mine is leningrad.

 

Christian is the go to person when comes to World coins

 

Great coins not rare, but hard to come by, I've 2 and I still don't know, but Krause shows no price change between the two.

 

I like them, I'minterested in a 1924 ruble now too . I didn't know the mints mark was on the edge until Christian told me. The mintage from the two mints are almost the same.

 

A blatant lie or extreeeme exaggeration, but it sounds good.
