I recently bought this coin and it has 35-36mm diameter. It's not perfectly round. Weight is just under 20g so that sounds fine.
Here on Numista the diameter displayed is 31mm, on Ucoin it is 35mm.
Can anyone help with the correct value ? or is it variable depending on the mint type ?
Thx.

Diameters may vary, it is normal for Russian coins from that time.
2 kopecks 1763 MM were minted over earlier 2 or 4 kopecks, therefore diameters of the coins from this year are usually larger
