[QUOTE="bobbeth87, post: 575271, member: 18369"]Thanks!!!! I looked it up, now that you gave me an idea on what to Google, and this is what I found: This coin was minted in 1913 to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the Romanov dynasty. It depicts the first Romanov-tsar, Mihail Fjodorovits and the last russian emperor Nicholas II who actually wasn't a Romanov but a Holstein-Gottorp.

How do you tell if it is "high relief" or "low relief?"[/QUOTE]
