I think I've misidentified these coins. These are 1992 ukraine 10 kopiyok . As far as I know there are two versions for this year, 6 berries right of K & 5 berries right of k. I had 1 listed as 6 berries right of k, but I think I am wrong. Any help would be appreciated. *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ***

Wow, at first glance these look like gaming/arcade tokens to me. But I take your word that they are Ukrainian, and since you know details down to the numbers of berries, you probably already know more than most of us about these. But I'm sure someone here knows about them.
Where did you get them?

Can't see them well enough to judge. Try posting one of them alone and cut out the background so only the coin is shown.

No, I think you're right, leftmost has 6 berries, second left has 5 (missing the lowest of that group). I think the other two also have 5, hard to say.
(And, there are varieties? Didn't know. I'd have to check my examples.)

Hey andyg, I use numista for cataloging my coins, for 1992 it only gives two option for the 10 kopiyok coin, 6 or 5 berries to the right of letter k. 86 varieties, wow!! I haven't done much research beyond these two options

Pettus & andyg, those links were helpful. The pic on NGC it's easy to see the difference. I changed my listing to 5 berries right of K, the common variety

Hi,
hope to help here a bit.
These are all 5 berry coins. The 6 berry coins have 2 rows of 3 berries, clearly visible, to the right of the K.
