<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Loong Siew, post: 3981702, member: 75799&quot;]The Fall of the Soviet Union. 1991. Full uncirculated set of the last coins issued by the Soviet Union. 10, 50 Kopeks.. 1, 5, 10 Rubles. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1048289[/ATTACH]&nbsp; A one year issue of the last coins ever issued by the former Soviet Union before it&#039;s dissolution on 26 December 1991. This coins featured the Kremlin instead of the usual Soviet State Emblem. It is extremely short lived as months after it&#039;s circulation, the Soviet Union ceased to exist when it&#039;s former republics declared independence following fear of a failed coup by hard core Soviets in August 1991 to seize power from then Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev after years of economic unrest and lost of popular support among the populace including Russia. Once a mighty superpower influencing half of the world order rivaling the US after the end of World War 2 and at the height of the Cold War, this marked a historic moment in history where the mighty has fallen.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
