These tokens come with two different fonts. The easiest way to distinguish them is by the alignment of the B at 8 o'clock. On the older tokens the upper point of the vertical bar of the B aligns with the lowest lines of the M (B on M). On the newer tokens, it aligns with the upper part of the bar below the M (B on bar). On RSP02c, the city name САНКТ-ПЕТЕРБУРГ is more compact, so there is more space between the first and last letter and the edge.

These tokens come with two different fonts. The easiest way to distinguish them is by the alignment of the B at 8 o'clock. On the older tokens the upper point of the vertical bar of the B aligns with the lowest lines of the M (B on M). On the newer tokens, it aligns with the upper part of the bar below the M (B on bar). On RSP02c, the city name САНКТ-ПЕТЕРБУРГ is more compact, so there is more space between the first and last letter and the edge. Metal colour ranges from reddish to yellow, due to differences in the brass alloy.
