***Auction Highlight*** Russia Silver 1810 ??? Poltina - 1/2 Ruble - 50 Kopek C# 129 Graded au53 Details. The word Poltina means 1/2 a ruble. About the Kopek, 100 Kopeks make 1 Ruble. To give an idea of the purchasing power of one of these in the 1790's one could purchase 50 apples for a Kopek, so these kopek pieces did have some nice buying power.The mintmarks available on these coins are:AM AnnenskEM EkaterinburgKM KolyvanMM MoscowCM Sestroretsk, Finland??? St. PetersburgTM Feodesia, CrimeaIn addition there a few years that pieces with no mint mark can be found. A Key Date's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin. I give this coin my highest recommendation
