I wonder what two kopeks would buy back in the day (1780)?

I don't know how much the Russian currency was valued at during that time, but I can bet is worth alot more than a 500 Rubles today. Just a guess. It's like how the penny back during the early years of the U.S. was worth more and bought more. Days long gone for both.

Thanks Stefanie. I don't have any more coins from Siberia or Russia coming at the moment, but I do have one from 15th century Bosnia due within two weeks that I'll post when it arrives. I can't wait.

There's nothing like knowing one's coming in the mail.

Hopefully I will come across something of interest soon.  Been looking for another hammered coin, but the prices keep going up on the really cool stuff.

I have two inexpensive ones this week

Gotta love those toned Canadian dollars.    Do you know if the '72 has silver in it?  They sure tone up nicely!  I thought they stopped the silver coins back in the late 60's, but I'm not really up on Canadian coinage.

I usually try to stick with silver jetons, but this design was just too cool to pass on.

Here's one that arrived today. This is a silver Grosh from the KINGDOM OF BOSNIA dating from 1443-1461 AD. Issued under the reign of King: Stjepan Tomas Kotromanic. Similar pattern to previous king, Tvrtko II.
