Description

1940 USSR 5 Kopecks - Rotated Reverse 10° Error, VF

The 1940 USSR 5 Kopecks with a rare rotated reverse error (10°) is a unique and highly collectible Soviet-era coin. Minted during World War II under Stalin’s regime, this copper-nickel coin features the Soviet state emblem (hammer, sickle, and globe) on the obverse, while the reverse displays the denomination within a wreath—struck misaligned by 10 degrees. Graded Very Fine (VF), it retains clear design details with moderate wear, showcasing its historical circulation while emphasizing the minting error’s distinctiveness. A must-have for collectors of Soviet error coins, WWII numismatics, or rare varieties, this piece combines historical significance with numismatic intrigue.

About brand

Nicholas I (1826-1855)

Nicholas I (1826-1855) – Nikoláy I Pávlovich, 6 July 1796 – 2 March 1855) reigned as Emperor of Russia, King of Poland and Grand Duke of Finland from 1825 until his death in 1855. He was the third son of Paul I and younger brother of his predecessor, Alexander I. Nicholas inherited his brother's throne despite the failed Decembrist revolt against him. He is mainly remembered in history as a reactionary whose controversial reign was marked by geographical expansion, economic growth, and massive industrialisation on the one hand, and centralisation of administrative policies and repression of dissent on the other. Nicholas had a happy marriage that produced a large family; all of their seven children survived childhood.
