    If you use 1 rubel coins, sure. Personally, I prefer to splurge on TP.

    Let me know once the 50 rubel note is cheaper than a sheet of TP.

      I’m pretty sure the metal value of a 1 ruble coin is worth a substantially more in it’s weight in metal than 1 ruble

        Double-checked, and you’re right.

          While true for the penny at least ($0.03 melt value(for solid copper pennies before 1982)) that’s the lowest value coin we have. What’s a Kopeck worth vs it’s metal value?

            I remember it used to be 1/13 of its metal value, but I can’t Google it up quickly and the ratio has probably changed since then anyway.

      I’m totally imagining the coin being like the 3 seashells on hard mode.
