Very interesting $2 coin with LOMO-camera pad printing and engraving "THE MOST POPULAR RUSSIAN CAMERA IN THE WORLD".

That is quite interesting, Alexander! So funny that it's a Niue coin, I guess somehow Lomographic society persuaded that Island to release one.. They go for around $220 each normally from what I see...

You are right, Vlad.
They mint coins for collectors only, normal circulation coins mints the Bank of New Zealand [:)].

If they mint anything, they could make a Fed printing, or a USSRphoto one. No? [8D]
