USSR 3 Kopek when it was the c.c.c.p. You got me why the Nazi eagle was stamped on it, and same with the other stampings.

Perhaps while the Nazis were invading they put stamps of their national symbol over the Russian symbols. Best way of showing the local populations who was in control...

This might be a valuable coin, with the history that involves this sort of thing. But I don't know how common they are.

OT to fcrazo, that is the face of my custom-made ceramic pig-bank, it's capacity is around $700 in cents {yes, seriously, but I never had that much $ to keep it filled for long}. The eyes were my choice to warn pig-pickers away, LOL.

Ancientcoin has a good point, it may be some sort of occupation emergency money the Germans used.

Just to react to the first question of Animalmoney. The text on the coin is well known motto: "Proletarians of all countries unite". My translation is not perfect, but hopefuly understandable.

"Ancientcoin" is the partial name of forum member "ancientcoinguy" (with spaces, the name would be "ancient coin guy"). "but hopefully understandable" means that Josef hopes that you can understand his translation.
