Comment
Mintmark: Л - L, Leningrad MintInteresting fact
The 50 kopecks coin from the Soviet Union (Russia) in 1991 was the last coin to feature the iconic hammer and sickle symbol, which represented the Soviet Union's communist ideology. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the hammer and sickle symbol was replaced with a new design featuring the double-headed eagle, which is still used on Russian coins today.
