Metal Detecting In Siberia - Trip To Manzurka (Story 9)
Recovering Old Coins and Relics

At this point, Rudolf was impatient to move on and suggested to drive up to the next village where we could get across the Manzurka river and explore the opposite bank. Everybody agreed and started getting ready for departure. Before I turned my machine off, I got a strong coin signal and was happy to unearth another "Masonic" coin that was similar and of the same year as Nikolai's.
1831 2 Kopeks
