Description:
A bright, visually contrasting hard pack, the upper part of which is rich red and the lower part is light cream. In the center is depicted the heraldic symbol of Armenia - a lion with a spear and a crown, executed in gold and black tones, giving the design a shade of historical symbolism and national pride. Under the emblem, the inscription is highlighted on a red background ARIN-BERA (Arin-Bera) in white letters. The „20“ marking is clearly visible on the side of the package, and the price printed on the top is „2750“. The design is traditionally Soviet in style, but has elements of regional identity and national identity.
Value assessment:
Collectible value: Higher. Arin-Bera is a less common Armenian cigarette brand, especially valued for its authentic national design and limited production run. Such packs are rare on the collector's market, especially preserved in unopened condition.
Condition assessment: Satisfactory – the package is unopened, the film is torn, the price is clearly visible and the surface is undamaged.
Historical data and popularity:
„"Arin-Bera" is one of the symbolic tobacco products of Armenia, the name of which is most likely associated with the ancient name of the Arin Berd fortress. Production was carried out in local Armenian tobacco factories after the collapse of the Soviet Union, when national brands were revived as symbols of local pride. This edition is considered representative and is valued by collectors as a specimen of cultural significance.
