The history of Russian coins, the emergence of new or trial options, are inextricably linked with the history of the state. With the beginning of reform activities in the financial sphere, the appearance of coins inevitably changes. In addition, the state symbols on coins that are in circulation on the market are also reflected in the design of bills and coins.
For collectors, the same valuable are the details that somehow were not printed or have been changed. In this regard, 1 penny of coinage in 1957 is particularly interesting.
The fact is that the traditional symbol of the state - the emblem - is decorated with sixteen ribbons on its image. Meanwhile, Carelo - Finnish Republic was abolished due to improved relations with Finland, which resulted in a change in the image of the coat of arms, which now has 15 tapes.
The coin is made of an alloy, which experts define as "aluminum bronze". It has a ribbed edge and weighs 1 gram.
The coin of 1957 worth one kopeck is not 15, as it was officially laid by this time, but still 16 tapes. Over time, this detail has gained some nostalgic flair and prompted collectors to look for this coin to replenish their collections.
