[QUOTE="gxseries, post: 1723920, member: 4373"]This was one heck of a challenge. Forked out enough money and I don't really want to remember how much this costed me. Not into varieties so I've left them out. The last two coins that I needed was 1927 and 1969 5 kopek, which is interesting as they are semi key dates. The toughest 5 kopek coins are 1934, 1933, 1935 (old type), 1927, 1970, 1971 and 1990 M. Some key dates are in low grade - figured that if I buy the low grades first, I can always upgrade them later. Still struggle to find better ones. Here are the two coins that I couldn't fit in my virtual coin album design.
