This 20 kopecks silver coin dated 1921 was struck in the name of the RSFSR during preparations for monetary reform. The series entered circulation in 1924 alongside new Soviet Union issues. Its RSFSR arms distinguish this early coinage from coins bearing Union symbols. The coin is .500 silver; denomination, date and edge identify the basic issue, while die varieties need separate examination.
