Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 10/16/2015 3:46 pm Recently received an ebay lot that looks to have been mostly comprised of a Russian person's ca. 1991 coin jar. Loads of 1961-1991 1 through 20 kopek coins. I checked for some of the more scarce varieties, and found a 1991 5 kopek with the Leningrad mintmark. NGC does not have this particular variety listed, but I did find a similar coin online for a couple bucks. Is this anything special, or is it just a fluke that NGC forgot to list it?

There's so many varieties out there, I wouldn't be surprised that NGC struggles to keep their head above everything. As for 5 kopek, there are some notable varieties out there. 1991 5 kopek with mintmark L and M (Leningrad and Moscow). There is a much scarcer type, which is 1990 5 kopek with mintmark M, which is a lot harder to find. In general 1965 to 1973 5 kopek coins are significantly harder to find, 1970 being the hardest. I've completed a date run of the entire 5 kopek from 1924 to 1991 and this was very very challenging.
