Enough for a car: how much you can get for old Soviet coins

Ukrainians, who were in no hurry to get rid of Soviet coins and kept them in their piggy banks, can now profitably sell them to numismatists.

“Today” found interesting lots on one of the online auctions.

15 kopecks in 1932 are sold for 148.5 thousand UAH. This coin, according to the seller, is made of brass. She was in circulation. And then for many years she was in the building – she was washed in soapy water.

What else are they selling?

An ordinary Soviet coin, which was once in the pocket of every inhabitant of the Soviet Union, is being sold at auction for 207,000 hryvnias. If such a penny of 1957 is somewhere lying around in the house, it can be sold at a profit.

Three kopecks in 1986 are sold for 80 thousand hryvnia. And a coin of 1949 with marriage is sold for 40 thousand hryvnias. There, on the obverse, there is a stamp from 20 kopecks in 1948 – a flat star.

Earlier, we reported that the National Bank will change the design of coins in denominations of one and two hryvnias, as Ukrainians massively complain that they are not easy to distinguish and are inconvenient to use.
