Hi, I'm a new user and have a collection of coins I inherited from my parents. They fled Russia during the revolution and arrived here in 1923. I would like to get an idea what these coins are and their worth. I have some gold ones also that I will put in another post. These 2 coins have been in circulation but are in very good condition. Thanks
Cool coins. They're a 50 Kopek piece (1894) and a Rouble (1892), respectively. Both are common dates, but both are silver and have some value for that alone. My 2 year old Krause lists them at $65 and $95 respectively in Very Fine condition. I think the rouble is probably a bit nicer than that ($250 in Extra Fine), but in practice Krause's prices tend to be on the high side.
Thanks for that information - I have another I'm trying to upload that has Michael and Nicholas Romanoff. I'll try again later.
