Congratulations on a rare find. This coin
even in Russia is rare.
We call it the "Masonic Ten", because
the eagle holds masonic symbols and the emperor
Nicholas 1 was a mason.
Perhaps, it was brought by a Russian emigrant.

The coin was minted at the Yekaterinburg Mint.
Circulation - 6 968 000 pcs.
The popular name "wings down" (Unlike most eagles in coin arms of other periods, with wings-up)
Objectively, the coin is not rare, issued with a rather large circulation, but due to the peculiarities of the minting with a very low relief, in good condition there are very few of them.
The find is not really frequent, even for Russia. Congratulations.
