Dillon Valued Member United States 240 Posts	Posted 05/12/2008 5:16 pm Hello, yesterday I bought two USSR coins, does anyone know what theyre worth? I cant read Russian, so if anyone can at least translate them, that would be helpful! I found the coins on (131231) Not Allowed - Auto-Removed , but searched for them on google and didnt get anything... http://(131231) Not Allowed - Auto-Removed /countries/coin_wd.php?dir=img8&image=149-135&desc=Russia%20y135%201%20Rouble%20 http://(131231) Not Allowed - Auto-Removed /countries/coin_wd.php?dir=img8&image=149-178&desc=Russia%20y178%201%20Rouble%20 -Thanks, Dillon!

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 05/12/2008 6:03 pm I found the first one in my Krause catalog, Y# 135.1 It's a commemorative, which Krause calls "20th Anniversary of World War II victory", although I think the coin is more to the point, reading something like "20 years, victory over fascist Germany" (Russian speakers please correct me here). I also notice the figure is standing on a broken swastika. In terms of value, Krause gives $1 in XF. Edited by KurtS 05/12/2008 6:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff

The second coin is to commemorate the Moscow Olympics in 1980.
