Coins of the Soviet Union
This year did not stand out in any particular way - the issue of coins of all denominations continued as well. Today, these coins are not valued, with the exception of one - 20 kopecks.
By rarities can be attributed to the coin-mix of 3 kopecks. She minted with the application on the front of the stamp of 20 kopecks. The differences can be seen in the form of ribbons on the coat of arms. In serial 3 kopecks, they are convex, and in crossroads, they are flat.
The shape, size and weight of the coin, issued in 1976, do not differ from the previous ones - for example, from the issue of 1971.
