The Society takes the broadest view of the scope of Russian numismatics, including the study of coinage, paper money, tokens and jetons, medals, awards, orders and decorations, and the history of the production of the various objects. The Society's aim is to be helpful and useful to as wide a range of interests as possible. Member's comments, criticisms and advice are our surest guide.
