Welcome to the new contest, equally useless as my previous ones! This time the aim is to guess the coin based only on its date.

This time, I'll also keep a score for future reference*

First person to guess the correct coin (country + denomination) scores one point. No need to look up KMs. If you're not sure, post your guess anyway, there's no penalty for being wrong. If there are 2 or more coins with the same design (e.g. Polish 1, 2, 5 groszy), any of these will do.

The colors of the photos will not be altered.

New rounds might contain 1 or more coin to guess. They will be posted at random hours and without any prior notice.

*Who knows if I finally get some cash I might make a prize for this. It's not the prize that's the problem, it's the darn postage rates.

The first coin:

Looks like USSR, but could be one of many denominations. I'll guess 20 kopeck

Triple point opportunity
Additional rule - if you don't know all of the coins posted in a multi-coin round, post the ones you know. The points will be counted.
