Rare coin 1923 year issue - Russia. Rare russian gold coin - one chervonetz, minted 1923. Short history:chervonets is a former currency of the russian empire and soviet union. Originally a term for coins of purer alloy the name was later applied to various sums in russian rubles. In 1922, during the civil war, the soviet government tried to enforce communist economic ideals and eliminate debt through systematic devaluation of the rouble and its associated currencies meanwhile, the authorities introduced a parallel currency, called chervonets, which was fully convertible and backed by the gold standard. These coins contained 8.6 g of .900 alloy, and fetched a high rate on the foreign stock exchanges, allowing the financing of the soviet unions new economic policy. Before industrialisation the value of the chervonets was pegged at 10 rubles, and production of the gold coins ceased. The coin has many soft scratches on the both sides.

KM (Krause-Mishler) Catalog #: 174. Gold Content: .917 Fine (22K). Actual Gold Weight (AGW): .1929 oz. As of this listing, the spot gold market is about $950 per ounce, resulting in a melt value of approximately $183 for this coin. Obverse Design: Imperial eagle with shield, wings down. Reverse Design: Inscription within wreath. Grading Opinion: A very nearly uncirculated coin, original luster remaining on smooth, unblemished surfaces. Excellent detail in the wings and shield on the obverse and the reverse wreath. My personal grading opinion: Choice Almost Uncirculated. Reserve: This rare coin is offered with an undisclosed reasonable reserve. Additional Comments: Struck under Alexander I and Nicholas I, this early "wings-down" design is not to be confused with the later, more common (but still scarce) "wings-up" design.

Rare coin 1894 year issue - Russia. "Country: Russia (Russian Empire). Date: 1894. Denomination: 10 Rubles (Roubles). Reported Mintage: Just 1,007. KM (Krause-Mishler) Catalog #: A42. Gold Content: .900 Fine (21.6K). Actual Gold Weight (AGW): .3734 oz. As of this listing, the spot gold market is almost $1,000 per ounce, resulting in a melt value of approximately $373 for this coin. Obverse Design: Portrait of Czar (Tsar) Alexander III. Reverse Design: Crowned imperial eagle with shields. Grading Opinion: A beautiful very nearly uncirculated coin, brilliant original cartwheel luster with smooth, unblemished surfaces. For accuracy only, I mention a very minor rim bump on the reverse (eagle) side near the date, of no grading consequence. My personal grading opinion: Choice Almost Uncirculated. Reserve: This rare coin is offered with an undisclosed reasonable reserve. Additional Comments: Not to be confused with the relatively common, smaller 10 Rubles of Nicholas II, this design was struck under his father Alexander III for just a few years (1886-1894) before his assasination, with very low mintages. In fact, this date is the lowest mintage reported. Russian gold coins are very popular now, and due to the rarity of these particular coins, they are in high demand. High prices are realized when they appear at live auctions, or demanded from dealers when available. This may be your best chance to acquire an especially attractive piece at a competitive price.
