<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gxseries, post: 720759, member: 4373&quot;]When I was in Russia back in 2002, commemorative 10 ruble coins are just difficult to find in circulation. I only got a couple while I was there and they were both Gagarin 10 ruble coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>From what I hear, a lot of the bimetal coins are hoarded from circulation and 10 ruble notes were pretty much favored. Well a lot of those coins can be sold on ebay for a dollar or more easily. Clearly three times more than it&#039;s face value. However from this year on, Goznak stopped printing 10 ruble notes and the mints have issued a new general circulation 10 ruble coin. What is interesting is that the size and composition of the new 10 ruble coin is completely different from the commemorative 10 ruble coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>Lastly, as far as I know, Russian coins are never packed in rolls - they come in bags of 100 and obtaining one bag usually cost a crazy prenium.
