Description: Catherine the Great Collector's Box (5 Kopek Copper Coin and CTG Stamp). Weighing in at a massive 51 grams on average, these enormous 5-kopek copper coins are almost twice as heavy as U.S. silver dollars of the same period. The elaborate monogram on the obverse, E T, stands for Ekaterina Tsarina; the reverse shows the Romanov two-headed eagle. Catherines influence was so great that her extra-large design was copied by the King of England; the British cartwheel twopence, a similarly large coin, was issued in 1797, a year after Catherines death. Her coins, outsized as they are, are a fitting monument to her memory.Also includes a postage stamp with her image. This beautiful mahogany style boxed set is rare and valuable gift for your loved ones or friends. Makes an extraordinary addition to any personal collection as well.
