Rare Coin 1916 1 kopek

[jamess]

I recently ( - - blocked - - ) across a coin, which appears to be from Russia, from the year before the revolution. The only writing that I have been able to translate on the coin is the '1 Kopek' marking, and the only reason I know what the word 'kopek' looks like in ( - - blocked - - ), is because I have a couple of them from 1998. I was just wondering, first of all, if this coin is real, and secondly, if it holds much value...being from before the ( - - blocked - - ) revolution and all. It is in pretty poor condition, many scratches and the like. The center of the coin concaves a bit, as if it was smashed or something. Here are two pictures, I can take some closer, more detailed ones if needed.

looks very rare, a definite collectors item.

Can you take and show more pictures of both sides?
Thanks.
