With a chasing of 3 kopecks in 1989, three options were used and two revolving. As a result, it turned out 5 combinations of varying degrees of occurrence. Ordinary options, because of a large circulation, almost nothing. They are bought as a bloom at a price of 100 rubles per kilogram. Rare is the option of LMD (thin numbers) in conjunction with Aversion - reduced coat of arms, its price is 3-5 thousand rubles. The variant MMD (thick digits) is significantly less common in combination with an AVERS from 20 kopecks, its price exceeds 20.000 rubles.

Option LMD Date Figures wide, Avers 3 kopecks of the 1979 sample (F-114) - a small coat of arms. Pretty rare.

Avers from 20 kopecks, reverse LMD (thin numbers)

Numismatics - a lot of careful. Having studied an article about the nodules, of course, did not forget how the number of positions in the catalog multiplies for a particular coin from the location of the dual points on the stem, which is moving along the coin along Kant. But the increase in catalog positions occurs due to the detection of coins, the obverse of which has a drawing, intended for a completely different nominal value.

Classic curtains

Classical coins are called monetary signs that have an element in the design created for some other coin. That is, it is an error of the production cycle, when, due to some reasons, confusion occurs with stamps. The resulting coin remains a legitimate payment agent to its withdrawal from turnover.

The most characteristic example of the Soviet chasenka is an obverse of a three-kopeur coin on a dihedral and vice versa. The confusion occurs due to the similarity of the diameter of the coin harvesting of twenty kopecks (21.8 millimeters) and three kopecks (twenty-two millimeters smooth). Discern a foreign stamp of the 1926-1931 period in the form of letters of the inscription "USSR". In the twenty, they are elongated, in three kopecks, on the contrary, rounded.

The period of 1931-1934 is characterized by the fact that the name of the issuer "Union of Soviet Socialist Republics" for the denominations that minted on Melchior moved to the reverse. Inscription "Proletarians of all countries, connect!" Downstairs now breaks the battle. Covering this era is an interesting incident. If the Avers is three kopecks on a dihedral, then the issuer is duplicated, being present both on the reverse and on the obverse. But if a stamp of a dihedrivny obverse is imprinted with a three-skill reverse, then there is no issuer's name on the coin sign. Formally, such a monetary sign can be recognized as insolvent. In real life, such three kopecks perfectly spinning in the circulation, not attracting attention. The identification and cataloging of the tip of the pore occurred after the conversion of the coin.

Since 1935, a clear sign that shares the standard coin and coin is a star in the coat of arms of the USSR. For three kopecks, it was made figure and incision, as if collected from five convex rhombuses. On an obverse of a dumarted, this star is flat and smaller.

In the era of the late USSR, Averses three and twenty kopecks also have differences, but in a less clear form. For their search, you should arm a catalog and good magnifying glass. A characteristic feature of the Aversa is a dummy can be a thick well-readed durable, coming out from under the top of the tape (Avers has three skeuries, this is a donkey or thin and is poorly distinguishable or absent at all). But on the snapshots of that pore indicates a complex of descriptions. This causes the need for a catalog, where all the differences between stamps are indicated.

Of course, the crossings are not limited to the rates of three and twenty kopecks. The similarity of the grivens and two-fiber coins is also able to work wonders. And the first Soviet crossings appeared in the first year of the coin of the coin of the Union. On a small number of kopecks of 1924, an Avers is declared an EVERS of a dugrivary with elongated letters. There are very few such coins to this day, so their collective value is very high. This can be verified by reviewing on our website the database of auction passages for a penny-cushion.

For modern Russia, the emergence of "outsiders" Avers We can observe on the rare monsnants of 2007, the obverse of which is minted with a stamp of five kopecks. Whether it was lacking by the end of the planned year of work stamps for the fiftiethich-actual nominal nominal, or the appearance of raritet contributed other reasons, while it is impossible to say.

Crowdows for Gurt

A full-fledged catalog position is the coat, where the third side of the coin is participating - Gurt. To do this, it must be minted by information that differs from year to year. This can boast annual admirations and rubles, starting since 1964. In rare cases, the genous ring forgot to be replaced, so the date on the reverse differs from the date, knocked out on the guiter. Basically, such coins should be sought in the annual sets of the USSR State Bank, but, of course, not in each. Detailed study follows the issue of studying the guards on the anniversary rubles of the Soviet Union. There, attentive collector, too, can sometimes wait for amazing surprises.

However, it doesn't even always need an inscription for the coating. The famous crossings on Gurt are three-skill coins of 1985 and 1986, the riflation of which is made narrow notches. The question still remains unresolved here: for the coin of which country, a genous ring was created, which threatened the rarities so wanted now.

Crowdows in the coat of arms

"It is incorrectly historically and wrong politically." A separate section of the coat, when the coin of the coat of arms does not correspond to the realities of the pore. Basically, it is manifested in the transition: three kopecks of 1946 with sixteen ribbons or two kopecks of 1948, where the tapes are only eleven. However, numismatists are known when Obverse is minted with a stamp, which is derived from the production chain many years ago. So Aversa three kopecks with a new type coat of arms suddenly appeared in a pair with a reverse of a decade ago.

The legendary "slag" can be attributed to the crossings of this plan. In 1986, a small part of the circulation, a small part of the circulation, in the designation of the letter "l" with an acute-coronal riding. That is, a stamp made to produce the anniversary coins of the previous period.

For the Soviet Yubileiki are also characteristic of the novel Date on the obverse: "Engels" 1983, "Pushkin" 1985, "Navoi" 1990 and others. Any of these coins is a recognized rarity and appreciates very high.

Cover by billet

An interesting phenomenon of Soviet pores are coins, not on their billet. On such copies, we see the drawing not entirely, but partly. The phenomenon will not call the mass. Such specimens are incredibly rare. However, if you are offered a coin of a similar plan, it is better to study the question of more. Otherwise, for big money, you will only acquire a substantial standard coin, a sharpening cunning seller. In the catalogs, we can find that after the disappearance of the Soviet Union, the closure on the billet continued to be issued.

An example is the five rubles in 1992, minted on the ruble billet. Modern Russia is also rich in similar examples, but here, rather, the principle of "any whim for your money" is already dominated when the chasing of such "instances" is intentionally.

Cover for metal

Actually, these are the same closures on the workpiece, but they are often attributed to a separate position. These are three and twenty kopecks, as well as two kopecks and ten. The closer was to the ninetieth, the more the chance of copper-nickel was on the place of brass and vice versa. The diameter of the Soviet feasts of the period 1961-1991 is similar to those, but only single reliable copies are known for these coins. To determine authenticity, we must weigh a coin. Its mass must fully match the workpiece for the original nominal. If you have three kopecks in your hands in the hands of three grams weighing three grams, then this is not a cushion, but the process of malicious activities, when the irrespective citizens painted the coin and, throwing her the premodest coat of arms upwards, issued for a dihedral.

It should be noted that the crossings on the workpiece (including for metal) are not independent catalog positions. However, if in a particular year, their presence is known, the catalogs almost always have mentioning them. In some way, the exception is the coins of 1992-1992, where a separate and very expensive position allocated magnetic tens and twenty 1992 and non-magnetic coins of similar dignity with the date for a year later.

What should not be attributed to numismatic crossings.

It does not include the so-called "mules" - monetary signs that have obvious signs of two (and even more) denominations. Recently, the auction trading in which coins are represented, one side of which is the reverse of fifty kopecks, and the other - Over the ruble. Such coins are not a complete payment agent. Their incessant presence in the assortment issues an explicitly custom-made nature of production.

The coins "Avers-Avers" and "Reverse Reverse" are also very controversial to the crossings. Formally, it seems to be why not? Just confused and instead of a pair of stamps "Avers-Reverse" put two identical. But such coins are difficult to recognize a full payment tool, and similar specimens should be selected directly on the mint. At first, rare coins with the same sides, who escaped in turnover, always caused an excitement, but now "orders" appeared in sufficient quantities, sharply dropping prices for such goods from the transcendental heights. But, of course, if you find such a coin in the surrender, it should not be lost back to turnover.

In conclusion, we repeat that the coat - the lot of those whose eyes of Zorka. Therefore, looking through the monetary heaps in grandmothers on the market, it is useful to pay attention not only for rare years (these days it is difficult to meet them, since the grandmothers now also draw information about the cost of coins from the Internet), but also on the details of the stamp drawing. Then it is quite possible that from the heap "everything is 30 !!!" You purchase a coin, the cost of which at auction aisles can reach a tens of thousands.

Cover - coins of errors, the most valuable options

The appearance of species of Soviet coins is connected not only with regular renewal of quacking stamps, but also so that in the process of coin production, although it is rare, technological disorders occur. In particular, the incorrectly assembled stamped pairs, which leads to the appearance of coins of the coin. Cover of numismatics is called varieties resulting from the erroneous use of stamps that are not characteristic of this year or nominal.

Cover with obverses from another denomination - price up to 150 thousand rubles

Due to the proximity of the diameters of 3 and 20 penny coins throughout the almost entire period of their joint release, erroneous substitutions of the stamps used for the chasing of the obverse occurred. The front side of these coins although they are similar, but still have explicit differences, for example: in the period 1927 - 1930, their obverse was distinguished by the font of the USSR abbreviation; In 1931-1933 the presence of the inscription of the USSR on the obverse; Since 1935, a star to 20 penny coins has always been flat, and there are convex 3-star. The cost of the most rare from such a tip reaches 150,000 rubles.

3 kopecks of 1931 with AVERS from 20 kopecks

Of the most noticeable, and therefore interesting for numismatics, we note rare crossings 3 and 20 kopecks. 1931 - 1934. The following fact attaches a special piquancy to them - the name of the country for 3 kopecks was located on the front side under the coat of arms in the form of the Abbreviation "USSR". And on 20 kopecks in that place is a decorative child. Since state affiliation on them is designated in the form of a circular inscription "Union of Soviet Socialist Republics", located on the other side of the coin. As a result, when the coins of 3 kopecks mistakenly focused using the face of 20 kopecks, then under the coat of arms, instead of the usual "USSR" was visible to the fiber (!), I.e. The name of the state on the coin was absent. But on the coat of 20 kopecks. With the coat of arms from 3 kopecks, the name of the state is spelled out "with a reserve", twice, on each side - and in abbreviated form, and completely. Auction prices for such mistake coins reach 100 thousand rubles and more.

Other snippets "at par" are known, for example, silver 20 kopecks of 1924 and 1925. With Aversz from copper penny. Their collection price is currently from 80 to 150 thousand rubles.

Cover-mistakes with old coat of arms - price up to 300,000 rubles.

1 kopeck 1957 - incorrect coat of arms with 16 tapes

Special demand among collectors use coins that have on the front of the "incorrect coat of arms", i.e. Not corresponding to the year specified on the coin. Copies with such "causing" errors have always been considered particularly valuable in numismates. The design of the coat of arms of the USSR, namely the number of ribbons encircling the ears periodically changed, as the number of republics as part of the Soviet Union was changed. It was reflected in the coats placed on the coins. The first years, until 1936, they were with seven ribbons, from 1937 to 1946 - with eleven, and from 1948 to 1956, the ears in the coat of arms were tied up with 16 ribbies and finally since 1957, they were 15.

In some of these transitional moments, "outdated", Averses for any reason came to the process of the monetary chasing of next year. Which led to the appearance of errors, with an incorrect coat of arms. Numismatians are known: 2 kopecks of 1948, in which instead of 16 ribbons, they, as well as in the preceding coat of arms, are only 11 (the price of 50 thousand rubles); 1 kopeck 1957, which still has 16 tapes instead of the already laid 15. (price of 300 thousand rubles) But the same 3 kopecks are found quite often (the price of 12 thousand rubles).

It is possible and more rarely encountered when the reverse stamp of last year falls into the chasing of new coins with the "outdated" date. So there are 10 kopecks of 1956, which in the coat of emblem not 16 "put" tapes, but only 15, as at the coin of the next 1957. Interestingly, there is also an inverse closure - 10 kopecks of 1957 with an old coat of arms that have 16 tapes. Each coin of this peculiar pair is estimated at 50,000 rubles.

Cover for metal and the size of mint circles

20 kopecks of 1931 minted on a bronze harvesting for 3 kopecks

In the manufacture of coins are possible "coins" and due to the fact that the process of chasing is occasionally "other people" mint circles fall. Of particular interest are cases when they are not only others in size, but also other metal. Numizes are known eight names of 3-penny coins, mined on white nominator billets and intended for 20 kopecks, as well as nine editions of yellow bronze twenty-kopecks. Especially often this happened in 1931 and 1932, the price of copper on metal of these years about 50 thousand rubles, options for other years are more rare and are already much more.

Sometimes there are clips only in size, for example, 20 kopecks made on a noticeably smaller mug for 15 kopecks, 15 kopecks on a mug for 10 kopecks. and 5 kopecks on a mug for 3 kopecks. But the kind of such coins are not very presentable, since part of the image is cut off in the process of chasing. Numizates such coins are considered as a kind of special production marriage, they do not fall into the catalogs, and their demand is somewhat lower than that of full-format cover. At auctions, the price of them, as a rule, does not rise above 20 thousand rubles.

The most valuable and popular with numismatons mint marriages

Coins with a large, well-visible technological marriage, which formed in the process of chasing have a collective value. If small defects reduce the cost of the coin, then a clear and pronounced marriage due to their unusualness, on the contrary, can significantly increase its cost. Most of the numismatists will not refuse to replenish their collection with samples of a rarely occurring and "factory" marriage. Naturally, the price of defective coins directly depends on how effectively such a defective coin looks, and how rarely one or another type of marriage is found. The cost of such coins can reach 20-30 thousand rubles.

Coins with the following defects are increased popularity: a double blow (it is formed when the stamp is repeatedly hitting the stamping and partially shifted in the coin chain press); The shift of the image (which is obtained if the mint circle originally settled down in the center). The stronger the displacement in each of these cases, the more expensive for the numismatons "spoiled" coin.

Mint Marriage - Incuse, Bulip, "Double" Avers

Incuses belong to the "elite" marriage, or the so-called "bindings", when one of the coin images is duplicated on the turn in a mirror form. This type of marriage is formed when, on one side, the chaucckening strike is applied not to a working stamp, but the coin poured in it. As a result, one side of the new coin turns out normal, and the other has the same image, but in a negative form.

Mint Marriage - Incuse, Bulip, "Double" Reverse

The search and definition of a rare "coin" in the coins "3 kopecks 1946" is often another sick question from collectors who are beginning to deal with the sampling varieties of the USSR coins.

After all, with popularization of the topic of varieties of coins of the USSR, collectors begin first of all to look for rare expensive specimens.

And errors in determining the rarity of the coin "3 kopeck 1946" occur quite often. In many ways, this happens due to a rush and inattentive interpretation of text descriptions from directories.

how to find a rare "coin" among the coins "3 kopecks 1946"?

How to distinguish a rare coin-curtain "3 kopecks 1946" from simple varieties, we will tell you today and show.

In our store to buy a variety of coins of the USSR in the category - Coins - USSR 1921-1957

But first rememberwhat is considered to be "snippet":
in this case, this is a coin that is minted using the "non-stamped" stamp of Aversa (coat of arms) "3 kopecks" - and stamps for the coinage coins of another nominal - "20 kopecks".

How it turns out "Cressing" on the mint, we told in detail in the past issue on this topic:
3 kopecks 1930. How to find a valuable "coat"?

In the case of 3 kopecks of 1946, everything is more complicated, since the signs are smaller and due to the wear of the coin may be non-obvious.

To start, Consider the facial stamp "20 kopecks of 1943" option "1.21", with the help of which 3 kopecks 1946 "Cressing" were minted.

20 kopecks 1943 "1.21"

20 kopecks 1943 with an Option of Aversa "1.21", with the help of which coins coins are coins 3 kopecks 1946

- Star small and flat;

- Sickle blade wider;

That is, a rare coin-curtain "3 kopecks 1946" should clearly attend all these signs of the coat of arms at the same time!

In practice, collectors often confuse these signs with ordinary varieties of "3 kopecks 1946".

3 kopecks 1946 "1.2" - normal option

3 kopecks 1946 with an option of obverse "1.2" - a simple option

The main features of the obverse (sides with the coat of arms) Simple coins:
- the star is large and cut by the spacers;
- The letter "P" in the word of the USSR is distant from the letter "C";
- Sickle blade already;
- The fuzzy coordinate grid of the globe.

Comparison of obverse in the picture

To summarize information, you can show the differences in the general drawing:

differences with rare copper from the usual option "1.2"

It is the coincidence of all distinctive features of the stamp "1.21" in the aggregate and determines the rare option.
And not one "flat star" separately (which most often happens just to be covered), as collectors often think.

3 kopecks 1946 "1.21" - Rare "Cover"

He generalized all the above, we can say that the rare coin-curtain "3 kopecks 1946" with the coat of arms from "20 kopecks 1943" looks like this:

- Star small and flat;
- The letter "P" in the word of the USSR is close to the letter "C";
- Sickle blade wider;
- Clear coordinate grid of the globe.

Of course, there are smaller differences, but we are confident that the signs indicated will be quite enough to determine.

Rarity and price

Prices in catalogs on a rare snippet "3 kopecks 1946":

• according to the catalog A. Fedorin 2010 - 100 USD
• according to the catalog Ya. Airianova 2014 - 2500 rubles.
• according to the Catalog price of Gavryushina-Petrova 2010 - 3000 rubles.

It must be said that these prices are approximate for coins in the "average" state.
Plus, the market and the general economic situation contribute their adjustments in the cost of numismatic material.

But, in any case, this coin-coin has a good degree of rarity, which is understandably determines interest in its search among the mass of ordinary and simple coins.
