I have alot more imperial russian coins in that condition.

 

This specimen is in beautiful condition.

 

How about this?

 

This St. Petersburg 20 kopek looks nice, but that said, your photographs are a bit small to really examine further.

 

Yes i dont know how to make images bigger and still detailed.

 

Most digital cameras have a macro feature that can enable more close-up photos.

Much better. Terrific specimen too, in high grade.

I can't speak to as whether yours is a weak strike, but your specimen appears to me to be around US-EF-40 range.

Here is a link to another specimen, in advertised AU grade. It's priced at $17US:

 

What do you mean by US-EF-40? Sorry i'am new to collecting coins.

 

Please see below link for Sheldon Scale of Grading Coins. It's a simple primer that explains the various grades.

The prefix US means grading pursuant to US standards. Other countries use other scales and qualifiers for grading coins.

Very nice coins. But i meant that is there any coin covers or something to display my coins. Sorry my mistake .

 

For encapsulating individual coins, I use AirTites. These can be purchased at various MM sizes.
For displaying specimens, I have seen some folks use spool cabinets lined with silvercloth. Here's an example of one:
