Is this a 5 Kopek coin or another one? It looks there is an upper 2.
The back looks like other 5 Kopek coins, but I forget to take a picture.

If necessary for identification I can make higher quality pictures.

@dave, first welcome to CCF. Second, it looks to me like the gouges up and to the right of the number 5 have "smushed" the metal around to look vaguely like a number 2. This coin wasn't struck that way and this would be considered damage.

I'm going to move your thread over to the world coin section of CCF.
