I bought the 50 kopeck coin to accompany other smaller denomination coins. This one is hefty, almost as an American half dollar. Because it is deeply engraved, the features are protected & so Czar Nick is practically unworn by more than a century of use. The well-preserved details of the obverse & the reverse make this a valued, beautiful coin. A good example of the Russian coin-maker's art....
I have gained interest in coins from other countries because of the interesting history of other nations. And another reason I bought this coin is because it is very hard to find, and I also like the design of the double headed bird. But a lot of details on the reverse were rubbed out and that is why it was so cheap. It is still a great coin though.
Awesome
