Set of Soviet Union Ruble Coins - PRICE DROP - SOLD!

[flora_digitalis]

Now you can grab a true piece of history:

Complete Set of Ruble Coins of the Soviet Union - a total of 6 4 3 2 identical sets are available one set remaining

This amazing set features a total of nine coins with the denominations 1 Ruble, and 50, 20, 15, 10, 5, 3, 2, 1 Kopeks from the time of the Cold War. The coins depict the infamous state emblem of the Soviet Union with hammer and sickle. Together with the cyrillic "CCCP" acronym ("Coюз Coвeтcкиx Coциaлиcтичecкиx Pecпyблик", the latin equivalent is "SSSR" = "Soyuz Sovetskikh Sotsialisticheskikh Respublik") it's an iconic part of modern history that should not be missing in any collection.

All coins offered here are in supreme condition, with grades of XF+ to UNC or even better (it was very difficult to make pictures due to the high reflection of the coins). Coins may have minimal superficial stain (I always leave the decision of cleaning to the specific collector, because it's a controversial topic).

With the exception of the 3 and 1 Kopeks coins all coins are from the year 1978.

The collector's value of this set is very significant. The most valuable coin is the 1 Ruble which is even valuable in VF condition. In UNC or better condition as it's the case here, it is very rarely offered at all. I was very lucky to acquire a set of these coins from an Eastern European collector a few years back.

The coins look to be in great condition for their age, are they still valid currency?

The coins look to be in great condition for their age, are they still valid currency?

After a little bit of research, it seems that after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1993 the coins were taken out of circulation and were no longer accepted as currency within Russia. If they are as rare as the seller suggests, then the face value of the coin is irrelevant as you'd never trade it in on that basis anyway.

I will say that the sellers price is very fair and appropriately graded. He did not say they were rare, only that they are a great set of coins to have in a collection in that condition, which I agree. A rare verity would be a 1967 with 1966 edge or 1976 with 1975 edge.

Exactly. The Soviet Union no longer exists - would be fun in today's world if it would... The modern Russian ruble is a different coin, featuring the modern state emblem of Russia (the double headed eagle) and it is smaller (because of inflation).

The coins offered here are collectible items.

The two years/variants you're mentioning are ultra rare and therefore extremely expensive. But the year 1978 is still more rare than other years. In general, you will not often find the coin in a comparably excellent condition as offered here.

I think the coins are a great memorial set of an important and fascinating part of history.

Two sets sold, 4 sets still available. All superior quality.

Meanwhile - to get the right feeling for this period of history - I recommend listening to the former state anthem of the Soviet Union: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U06jlgpMtQs

So my offering price is indeed quite fair, considering you get the other denominations on top and shipping is free.
