I have received as a gift some Russian Imperial coins. What is a good reference to judge these coins? Any good web sites?
Thanks
Dan

    If you mean you received gold roubles of 5 rouble denomination, then here is a breakdown on those:
    wieght - 6.4516 g. , composition - 0.9000 gold , .1244 oz actual gold weight.
    1901 - 7,500,000 minted, range = $55 - $70 in XF and $75 - $100 in Unc
    1902 - 6,240,000 minted , range $55 in XF and $75 in Unc
    1903 - 5,148,000 minted , range $55 in XF and $75 in Unc
    1904 - 2,016,000 minted , range $55 in XF and $75 in Unc
    I hope you do have a 1905 because there are only 10 minted and they are $7,000 in XF and $10,000 in Uncimage
    I hope that helps. All of this info is from the 2003 Krause Standard Catalouge of World Coins.
