Russian 5 Ruble Year 1992 Collectible Vintage Currency Coin

After the fall of the Soviet Union, the Russian Federation introduced new coins in 1992 in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 rubles. The 1- and 5-ruble coins were minted in brass-clad steel, the 10- and 20-ruble coins in cupro-nickel, and the 50- and 100-ruble coins were bimetallic (aluminium-bronze and cupro-nickel-zinc).

Thus, this Russian 5 Ruble, vintage 1992 is the first ever batch of coinage under the new Russian Federation government that is no longer in circulation, and has become a collector's item over the year's because this was the first currency that was introduced after the break-up of the USSR.

This 5 Ruble coin is very well kept and it has aged gracefully. There is no visible damage to the coin except for the ageing process of slight discoloration.

This coin comes in a plastic bag suitable for storing coins.
