    Thought I'd post it here since Russian error coins are somewhat under appreciated and or underrated. Got them a while back but never got around to properly photographing them.

    1750 denga, double struck

    1773 5 kopek (EM), excess cud

    1812 2 kopek (KM), lamination

    1821 2 kopek (EM), multiple strike

    Now this one is interesting - I'm actually not too sure if this is multiple strike or something else.

    1930 5 kopek, rotation error

    I know it's just a "normal" Soviet coin but when was the last time you see an error coin like this?

    1994 50 ruble commemorating sandy mole rat, off center core

    I really thought the off center core is neat! Matches with another off center core coin that I have.

    Please feel free to share your Russian error coins. :)

    Not a huge fan of older copper, finding a perfectly struck coin from that period might not be easy, they were often minted with all kinds of issues, but the 1930 5kop. is nice, not a common error on this type. The 50rub. is awesome, must have some serious premium.

    I like bimetallic errors, posted on CT some time ago a unique Israeli 10 shekel error, still haven't found another with similar issue.

    Will post a couple of my Soviet clashed dies later when I`m back from work.

    Nice clash, not very rare but also not too common:

    Common clash on this type, well pronounced:

    Doubted you will find many Russia collectors in here, excluding our friend from Tomsk. And me of course.

    I am mostly into Israeli coins errors. The moment I see a thread with slightest interest in those, I`ll join in!

    You had to remind me of those Catherine the Great 5 Kopecks, didn't you? :p

    Now I have another thing on the Baltimore List.
