Hello.

 

I have a rusian 1 rubel coin from 1894 that was found in the late 1930's by my mothers grandfather when he was changing the fabric on some old furniture.

 

Anyone that can give me a grade on this one.

My best guess is by US standards it would go about F-15 to VF-25. I am completely unfamiliar with the piece, but that would be about the details grade in my opinion.

VF sharpness by U.S. standards.

 

It looks like it has some hairlines and has been cleaned. I see hairlines in two directions on the obverse and dark toning around the letters on both sides with gray fields which would indicate that the fields have been rubbed.

 

Sorry ... (shrug)

If it was found in furniture, it seems logical that it fell out of someones pocket, unless it was stashed there. It does look rubbed(mostly on the left obverse) . VF detail.
