Russia - USSR Gold Trade Chervonetz 1977

This is an example of the restrike 10 Rouble Chervonetz types - this from 1977. In 1923 the Soviet authorities resurrected the old Slavic name for Ducat, Chervonetz, for their 10 Ruble coin. It still retains the original design of the 1923 [see the Moneta Museum for an example] under the RSFSR. While listed in catalogs as "Bullion value +", you actually don't see a lot of these for sale.
