I have looked on the internet and have not found any aluminum. I'm only finding 1992 brass versions. Is it real? Rare? ***Update. It weighs .88 grams***
You are showing only a 1993, but I have a 1992. Don't they usually show all the years? That's why I am questioning this coin. I searched and haven't seen a 1992 aluminum version.
My bad, I was only paying attention at the “aluminium” part, not at the date. And yes, they show all the years. Also in Schön they give the aluminium coin only for 1993. So you have a strange coin. And no answers.

Yes, I thought it was strange also. Thanks for the help!
Interesting that the 10, 20 and 50 Qapiks all have a 1992 aluminum version.
Yea. Maybe a misprint? A fake? Not sure why people would fake it, but never know lol. I work for a hotel and had a fake $5 bill (USD), so I guess anything can happen. Where do you get your info from?
It would be highly unusual for both SCWC and Schön to be wrong.
I doubt it's a fake. Here's a page for the sale of a 1992 Aluminum one (although the picture looks like a brass one and the weight is the same as the brass one but says it's KM 1a).
No one has asked this yet. What makes you think it is aluminum? Just the color?
Is one of these aluminum and one brass?
I mean, it looks and feels like aluminum. Take a look at the pic I put up. I am in the process of buying a coin scale so I can weigh it. Is the one on the left brass, too?

I assume so since it was included with other pictures of brass coins. The difference in weight should be obvious.
It definitely looks like aluminium, since those roller marks are common on coins made of this metal:
Do you have the brass piece so you can feel the weight difference in-hand compared to yours?
I do not have it in brass. When I get the scale in, I will find out the weight. I would have asked my local coin dealer, but he's closed until Wednesday, and by then, I should have my scale. I should have asked him when he was looking at it.

Yes. I've ordered my scale, so it'll be in by Tuesday or Wednesday.

Thanks! It does at times fall to .87, but .88 seems to stay steady. It is an interesting piece that I have so far. I still have a bunch of other coins and banknotes to go through.
You might request the addition of the date 1992 in the Numista file.
When it exists, it exists :)
I think it is better to first ask on the forum I sent link to, in case it is an error. Or a trial strike. Because Numista does not list errors, and if it is a trial strike, it should have a separate page (I think)

I just tried. It's:

Strange. I did CCCP and it didn't work the first time, but now it works. Thanks again!

Did you write it with latin or cyrillic letters? Because while C and P look the same to human eye in both, computers distinguish them.
(This can also be used to create strong passwords)

Well, I am able to get in now. I'm about to write in the forums. Thanks!
