Comment
Coins with the coat of arms of the RSFSR were minted in 1921-1923 in preparation for the future exchange of money. They were released into circulation in 1924 together with the coins bearing the coat of arms of the USSR. In 1924-1961, both types of coins circulated simultaneously, although starting from 1927 silver 50 kopeks and rouble started to disappear from circulation.
Interesting fact
The 50 Kopecks coin from the Soviet Union (Russia) made of Silver (.900) weighing 10g has an interesting fact that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Russia. The coin was minted in 1921-1922, which was shortly after the Russian Revolution of 1917, which saw the overthrow of the Russian monarchy and the establishment of the world's first socialist state. This coin is a symbol of that time of change and a reminder of the significant events that took place in Russia's history.
