RUS1987 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 03/27/2020 7:31 pm Hello anyone can let me know if this Ruble is a real Gold coin or not? 1891 Russian 5 Rubles Alexander III On the side of it says that it is made of Pure Gold. However, the weight of it is 6.18 grams and it should be 6.45 grams according to this web site. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces17819.html If it is real I would like to know the value of it. Thank you Report this Post to the Staff
