<p>[QUOTE="zantetsuken, post: 1126813, member: 21665"]This is a fun area to collect. Here a couple from my collection. The first is 20 Ruble from the <b>KHWAREZM SOVIET PEOPLES REPUBLIC</b> dated 1338 AH/1920 AD. It contains Cyrillic legend on the obverse, and Turkic (Farsi) script on the reverse. Ironically, Khwarezm struck Soviet coinage before the Russians. The second is a 1/2 Kopek from the U.S.S.R. dated 1928. This one is a bit more scarce than many of the coins issued for the Soviet Union. It was a four-year type that was struck from 1925-1928, this one being the last issue.</p><p> </p><p><img src="http://i706.photobucket.com/albums/ww65/samuraisedge/KhwarezmSoviet20Ruble1920.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p> </p><p><i><b>KHWAREZM SOVIET PEOPLES REPUBLIC~20 Ruble 1338 AH/1920 AD</b></i></p><p> </p><p><i><img src="http://i706.photobucket.com/albums/ww65/samuraisedge/USSRHalfKopek1928.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></i></p><p> </p><p><b><i>U.S.S.R.~1/2 Kopek 1928</i></b>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
