Russian Empire 1780 EM 5 kopecks




Now we're getting to the overweight ones. This one is 62.1g, 41.5mm. Still another ten years until the monster.

Cool edge on that 5 kopeck coin!

I'm in the middle of a multi-year run of (much smaller!) copper Polish coins. Strangely (at least to me) there were both billon and copper versions of the same denomination being struck at ths time.
1780 grosz.
