USSR 1992 Barcelona Olympics Rouble, 1-yr type and the last Soviet commemorative issue; sealed Proof. FREE SHIPPING WITHIN THE U.S. FOR THIS ITEM.
Scarce last USSR commemorative issue – these 6-coin series were struck in 1991 by the Soviet Government in for the 1992 Summer Olympic Games in Barcelona, Spain. But by the time the Summer Olympics took place in Spain the there was no longer a country called USSR – it disintegrated into a number of independent republics and the oppressive Soviet rule was no more (or so we though until putin came along). The USSR issued just six proof-only commemorative Rouble coins for the 1992 Barcelona Olympics issue. The total mintage was just 250,000 coins of each type. A nice find; don’t miss your chance to add this last Soviet commemorative to your collection!
At this price I have the following types available; each coin is still in its original sealed mint Mylar pocket:
- Runners (1 coin),
- Cycling (1 coin),
- Javelin throw (1 coin),
- Wrestling (1 coin).
The price is per-coin; please specify which type you are purchasing during the check-out or just send me a quick email (see my Contact Us page for the contact info). The coin is about 12.8 grams, 31 mm in diameter; nickel-copper alloy; inscription on the rim. Proof condition; some light hairlines are noted for accuracy. These are the actual photos.
This scarce USSR 1992 Barcelona Olympics Rouble is guaranteed to be genuine or your money back.
