<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gxseries, post: 1672224, member: 4373&quot;]Won the lot of them a while ago and forgot about them completely until I was doing a bit of clean up. </p><p><br /></p><p>Some reckon that this is easy but I beg to differ. While the catalog values for each coin may not be very high, some years in particular from 1965 to 1973 are a lot tougher than what many think. You might be able to find many Soviet coins in junk coin lot including 50 kopek and some commemorative rubles but I have rarely seen hoards of rubles in such coin lot. </p><p><br /></p><p>These days when I look at ebay, prices for a lot of the common XF+ ruble coins (1980s onwards) are commanding at least 5-10 dollars. Coins from the 60s to 70s are priced insane - some are asking for 30 - 50 dollars if not more. </p><p><br /></p><p>I reckon it&#039;s A LOT easier to complete an entire set of Soviet commemorative coin set (excluding the Barcelona commemorative coins) instead of this non-commemorative ruble coins. As of why, I have no idea. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a couple of photos: </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://gxseries.com/dump/1r_1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://gxseries.com/dump/1r_2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>With this, I have completed every single Soviet ruble coin that has been released excluding varieties. Maybe you have some of these in your collection?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
