Russian wire money

8 posts
Hello,

Help me please to identify this coin:


On https://colnect.com one Brasilian collector told me that my coin is"from the tsar Mikhail I (1613-1645, the 1st Romanov tsar)". Is it true? The coin was found in the center of Moscow, in the yards, during the melting snow. Weight is 0.4447 gr. Composition -- I don't know.

Thank you in advance,
Elena
It is true

​That was me.

I have one of these (https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces112417.html), so I've recognized part of his name, Mikh(ail) Fedor(ovich). Mintmark is gone (on the rider's side), but probably is oM as you've found in Moscow.

You can look at this site, it helped me when I got my first wire coin (currently have 3): http://spsearch.ru/discovery/coins.html
I've got one in Goritsy where the boat lands in a tourist shop for 1000 rubles.
I wonder how they managed to always center the coin when hammering it B.
It's an interesting curiosity in a coin collection

​They didn't manage to center them every time, a lot of such coins are bad-centered...
