The Russian Gold 5 Roubles is a gold bullion coin minted by Russia's Saint Petersburg mint

A Russian Gold 5 Roubles is a Russian coin that has been minted since 1897, primarily composed of 90%, 21.6-carat gold. Weighing 4.3 grams with a diameter of 18.5 mm, the coin typically features the portrait of the reigning Tsar on the obverse, while the reverse displays the Russian imperial coat of arms with the crowned double-headed eagle — iconic symbols of Russia’s imperial past. Since these coins are over 100 years old, their condition varies, and the minting techniques of the time were not as precise as today. As a result, the coins we offer have a tolerance of up to 1% for both weight and purity, which is standard for coins of this era.

According to the original specifications, each gold coin contains 3.869 grams of gold within a total weight of 4.3 grams, with a gold purity of 90.00%. Minor variations in weight and purity are to be expected due to the less advanced production techniques of the past and the wear and tear from these coins having circulated extensively over time. Given their age and usage, such deviations are considered normal.
