<p>[QUOTE="zantetsuken, post: 1044300, member: 21665"]Thanks 'gxseries'. The Siberian Polushka was the most difficult to aquire among the Siberian coins. I still have yet to aquire the Denga for this series. Most of the Polushkas that I encounter look very rough or worn, but this one is pretty decent. The 2 Para/3 Kopek Sadagura aren't so difficult to find in low grade, but in high grade or mint condition, is another story entirely. These are extremely rare in this grade. Except for the scars from the mount marks, this specimen is as close to mint grade that I've encountered yet. Armavir coinage, as 'Siberian Man' said are extremely rare, with the 5 Ruble being the rarest. Fate threw me a bone with this one about two years ago when I my 5 Ruble at a very reasonable price. The problem with Armavir coins is that you run into alot of fakes for these, especially the 1 Ruble. Fortunately most of the 1 Ruble fakes are very easy to spot, as they are ugly, and crude. I do actually have one coin from Tannu Tuva thats been in my collection for about fifteen years in the amount of 15 Kopek. Tuva coins are probably almost as rare as Armavir coins.</p><p> </p><p><img src="http://i706.photobucket.com/albums/ww65/samuraisedge/TannuTuva15Kopijek1934.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p> </p><p><b><i>TANNU TUVA~15 Kopek 1934</i></b>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
