gold coin collection

Posted Mar.12, 2010 under Price of Gold Coins

Serious collectors collect gold and silver coins from a multitude of countries and time periods. Some of the most popular coins in the portfolios of investors are many the pre-1920 gold coins from Russia.

The gold coins of Imperial Russia, available in the years 1897 to 1909, are considered as an investment solid and safe. Whether the coins were issued in rubles, rubles multiples, or in older versions of golden ducats called novodels or gold kopeks, demand samples of Russian gold coins has always outweighed the supply.

Pre-1912 coins from the era of Russia are generally available in denominations of five rubles, 10 rubles to 15 rubles. Some of the most favored specimens include but are not limited to:

Alexander III – Gold 10 markka 1882
Nicholas II – Gold 20 markka 1912
Nicholas II – five rubles 1897
Nicholas II – five rubles 1898
Nicholas II – five rubles, 1900

Measuring anywhere from 18 mm with a gold content of 1244, the five rubles minted between 1895 to 1911 are difficult to locate these days. Gold 150 rubles name measurement of 29.5 mm, 5000 containing gold, are a sound investment for the minimum expenditure for most collectors and investors.

Although more simplistic in design of many bullion coins, gold coins of Russia in favor of the busts of Nicholas II are favorites in a multitude of denominations.

Pre-1920 Russian gold coins are a must for most collectors and investors who are interested in the history and legacy of the coinage gold coin worldwide. In my opinion, are a great addition to any collection that is highly treasured for years to come.
