Hi all, Anyone know where to purchase Russian coin albums? I'm specifically looking for the red type set album for coins of the Russian Empire (1796-1917). Used to be a seller on Ebay who sold them directly from Russia, but I guess sanctions have closed off that route. Thanks!
I found this thread on reddit which I'm guessing is similar to the album you are referring to (that one is Soviet and after)? The person says he bought it from Russia and I'm guessing that is the main source for these. Nowadays your only hope is someone on eBay or another US site lists their copy for sale. https://www.reddit.com/r/coins/comments/rphmas/this_is_my_progress_on_my_russian_type_set_it/
That red album is neat. I really would like to know who manufactures these albums. The rest I can handle - I can design...
I know, I saw that link too! Should have bought it when I had the chance a few years back. Oh well...
There are way more different types if you include eagle variations. Couple of links from my collection Silver http://gxseries.com/numis/rus_imperial/ag_group_1802_1917.htm Copper http://gxseries.com/numis/rus_imperial/cu_group_1802_1917.htm A concept Paul I coin type set (1797 - 1801) in a page http://gxseries.com/numis/digital_album/paul_i_page1_small.jpg http://gxseries.com/numis/digital_album/paul_i_page2_small.jpg It can get quite expensive!
