10 kopeks 1958

Hello,
Please let me know the price for this rare coin in your country market.
If someone is interested in it, I will be glad to discuss.
Thank you.

It would depend if it is the Aluminium or copper nickel

Aluminium version doesn't have a value on NGC but the Copper Nickel version is valued £1200+ VF, complete opposite ends of the spectrum for the same denomination.

I am working on my British collection at the moment so it wouldn't be for me.

Good luck!

It is the original coin, the Copper Nickel version. The weight is 1.74 gr

Then the value is very little.

Citeer: eitan190Then the value is very little.

Why? Can you explain please?

In Russia between 1958 and 1991, They were mainly aluminium. Most of the copper nickel were not released and were melted down but a few existed in the Ukraine.

The versions that carry value are

10 KOPEKS 1958: copper-nickel
10 KOPEKS 1961 TO 1991: copper-nickel-zinc ( this one carries a small value)

as to the true valuation for your coin, It would have to be valued to get the price it is today as NGC can tend to be a little over inflated on some coins, the info may possibly be out of date and needs updating.

if you do indeed have the copper nickel then you may well have a nice valuable coin. I suggest you take it to a dealer for independent valuation to be sure because the catalogued weight for the copper nickel 1958 is 1.6g.

Thank you very much. I also have some information about this coin.
As you can see on the picture attached, in 1957 the weight of the coin was 1.8g, then starting from 1961 it was 1.6g. In the internet, I found a picture of the same coin wiht exactly the same weight 1.74g, it was sold in Ukraine in 2013.
 

In Russia actual sales of 10 Kopeks 1958 in VF condition usually bring 22-25 thousand Roubles ($400-$440). For better condition it might be more, if one finds a paying buyer... That's for the coin weighting 1,6 g (see catalogue by Fedorin).


As for coins with different weight, be aware that there were copies made a few years ago, and one could buy a whole 1958 set (from 10 Kopeks to 5 Roubles) of copies in copper-nickel for about $50 or less.

With your poor photos it's difficult to judge if the coin is original, weight creates doubts.
You could either send your coin to NGC for certification and grading and then sell a certified coin on eBay, or try to sell it as is in Russia, where it might be in bigger demand and where collectors have catalogues other than Krause and would know without third party certification if the coin they are buying is original.


 

i think in your condition near 550$
but it is in Russia
i am not sure, that anyone in Europe collect this and want to buy one coin for hight price

Not quite. The original plan for the monetary reform called for all aluminium coins with new design for all denominations, from 1 kopek to 5 rubles. They were struck, but all melted when the plan was scrapped. Under the new plan, 10 kopeks and higher denominations would be a copper-nickel(-zink) alloy, and plans for 3 and 5 ruble coins got cancelled. A small number of coins struck in new alloy in 1958 were released in Ukraine and those carry much higher prices than 1961 and later coins.

Latest price list from http://www.coins.su/docs/um_udssr.xls lists 1958 10 kopeks (f-vf) at 25k rubles (~USD$467).

ps: There were also plans for a 1/2 kopek coin, but they figured out production costs would be too high, so only a few test coins were ever made.
