RUSSIA. Osaka. 15 Kopeks. 1916. Nicholas II (1894-1917) - Value: 15 Kopeks. - Reign: Nicholas II (1894-1917). - Year: 1916. - Inscriptions: Obverse: Б.М. НИКОЛАЙ II ИМПЕРАТОРЪ И САМОДЕРЖЕЦЪ ВСЕРОСС. Reverse: 15 КОПѢЕКЪ · 1916. - Grading: MS63 (NGC). Silver 15 Kopeks coin minted in 1916 for the Russian Empire at the Osaka Mint (Japan), an extraordinary issue produced due to the limitations of the Russian industry during World War I. The obverse features the crowned double-headed imperial eagle, with scepter and orb, bearing the Imperial shield and territorial shields on the wings, in a heraldic design of great richness and excellent definition. The reverse shows the denomination and the date beneath the imperial crown, framed by an elegant open crown of laurel and oak branches tied with a bow at the bottom. The specimen retains an attractive original luster with slight silvery toning, well-defined relief and clean fields with light contact marks typical of the grade, maintaining an excellent visual presence in line with the MS63 grade awarded by NGC. These Osaka-minted coins constitute an interesting testament to international cooperation during World War I and represent one of the most singular issues of the monetary series of the last Tsar of Russia.
