<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KSorbo, post: 2224609, member: 56370&quot;]After doing some more research I&#039;m realizing that we can&#039;t even speak of &quot;Russian coins&quot; or &quot;Chinese coins&quot; as a single entity.&nbsp; For instance, today I looked at recent Ebay sales for a couple of base metal Russian mint sets (1995 and 1996) whose prices had shot up into the hundreds of dollars and found that they had dropped like a rock.&nbsp; Older coins like the 1913 ruble, on the other hand, don&#039;t seem to have fallen nearly as much.</p><p><br /></p><p>If the demand for the mint sets is more limited to the Russian market and is subject to speculation, then it&#039;s not surprising that they aren&#039;t holding their value now that the Russian economy is tanking.&nbsp; And if older material has more of a following in the rest of the world then perhaps it is less volatile?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
