Todays silver & my First USSR coin - LOL

Just 1 40% today, I bought $1,000 (4 boxes of dimes) from the teller that sold me the box with the 33 silver dimes in it. Anybody ever find one of these? I knew it was going to be a forign coin because there was a dirty ring around the roll as the coin is just a tad bit larger than a US half. LOL - Would this be concidered "the peoples half"... The edge doesn't have reeds like a US half, instead it has Russian writing all around it.
Anyone know what the coin is called so I can list it in GMan's thread?
Cool find though, I will keep it.

No problem, I was not clear - with "black book" I was referring to "The Official Blackbook Price Guide to World Coins 2009, 12th Edition (Official Price Guide to World Coins)" $7.99 at Amazon... there are also separate ones for US coins, stamps, currency etc.

I actually babelfished that to figure out what it meant.

Uh, you don't think I'm that fluent in russian do you? I used babelfish to write it!
