    Russia
    Saint George the Victorious
    Ukraine
    Archangel Michael
    Kazakhstan

    Beautiful coins! The US mint should take some lessons from these guys.

    Yes, St, George slaying the dragon has been on several Russian coins before. These days you can find the scene and design on several gold and silver bullion pieces.

    As for the Grasshopper vs Cricket question ... well, I am not an expert, but here for example the Ukrainian piece is also listed as a "grasshopper" coin. http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~ch2m-nitu/coin/coin2e.htm :)
