Gentlemen,
I would like to get your opinions on the attached OGPW2 Type 2. This is an unusual (to say the least) piece which does not fit any category previously compiled for OGPW2 Type 2.
It is neither "Starback", nor "Concave". Nor is it a "Ring Reverse", however it does exhibit some elements of Concave/Ring Reverse Types.
Please let me know what you think.
I did seek Alex F's opinion about this, and he has come up with a conclusion that this may be a duplicate order from Krasnokamsk Monetny Dvor (KMD), however this one was issued before there existed a cyrillic "Ä" on the reverse.
