Our planet is inhabited by a huge number of people. And almost every third person has a favorite hobby, which is dedicated to free minutes from work. At the same time, sometimes a favorite pastime becomes a way to get additional or basic income.
Numismatics as a way to generate income
For example, numismatics. The habit of collecting old and modern, but no less valuable coins from Russia and the whole world, acquired in childhood or over the years, can eventually turn an ordinary person into a millionaire. Of course, true numismatists will never wish to voluntarily part with their collection. There are cases when, even in extreme need, collectors were ready to starve, but did not want to part with their treasure.
In almost every country where there has been or is minting, there are valuable coins. Russia owns a vast territory and a long exciting history of development. It is the coins of ancient minted yards (imperial, royal) that are used by numismatists around the world as a priority. Collectors are ready to lay out a rather round amount in order to get another rarity in their storehouse.
The development of engineering and technology has allowed people with similar interests to unite. A positive point was the simplified search for the seller or buyer of the product of interest.
Examples of valuable coins of Russia
The following examples are rare valuable coins of Russia, issued not so long ago. Many numismatists see dreams about these metallic banknotes.
For example, a five-kopeck coin issued in 2002. She was released both in Moscow and in St. Petersburg. The value is determined exactly at the place of manufacture. If the coin on the reverse side under the hoof of the horse has the letter “M” (Moscow) or “SP” (St. Petersburg), then it can be easily spent. Numismatists are attracted to their "sister", which does not have a distinction. If even under the microscope you cannot detect traces of the mint, you automatically become richer by at least 5000 rubles. This is the starting price for this metal currency.
Valuable coins of Russia also include:
1. 5 kopecks, the issue of which dates back to 2003. Like the previous one - without a sign of the place of manufacture. The preliminary cost is 900 rubles.
2. 50 kopecks that appeared in circulation in 2001. There are no restrictions and features. Just a coin was issued in a minimal edition. If you happen to find her at home - congratulations! You have become richer by at least 1 thousand dollars.
3. Any ruble that was born in 2001. A small circulation makes all these valuable Russian coins even more expensive. For each copy, you can earn about 23,000 rubles.
4. Ruble coins of 2003 issued by the St. Petersburg Mint. The approximate cost is 13,000 rubles.
5. Two rubles, also issued in the northern capital in 2003. It has no varieties, but it has crafts. The price for this metal banknote is set in the region of 8700 rubles. Etc.
Commemorative coins
This list, which includes valuable coins of Russia, does not end there. There are several more species that will be interesting to numismatists. These include defective and valuable commemorative coins of Russia. The last category includes:
1. Two-ruble coin of 2001, on which Yuri Gagarin is depicted on the reverse side. Moreover, only those specimens on which the minting place is not indicated are of value. The absence of a label looks to the right, from the very edge of the number "2". If there is no sign, the value of the coin automatically flies up to 4700 rubles.
2. In 2010, in honor of the beginning of a new phase of life in Chechnya, the Bank of Russia issued a jubilee coin with a face value of 10 rubles. This banknote is made from brass and cupronickel. The cost of such a coin is 2650 rubles. Moreover, the price of it is growing annually.
3. A ten-ruble coin issued in 2010 by the Bank of Russia in honor of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug of the country. Made of an alloy of brass and cupronickel, it gradually increases its value. At the moment, the price of it is about 9000 rubles.
Be careful: maybe in a bank where you put a trifle, a coin is hiding that can fulfill your cherished dreams.
