About 2 million more of 1911 dated coins were minted at Soviet time?

Discussion about Russian Empire • 10 Roubles - Nicholas II

In Wikipedia there is the following information: “Six hundred thousand gold 10 ruble coins were struck in 1925 from the old dies which had survived the 1917 Revolution and the subsequent civil war. These coins were dated 1911. The following year, 1926, the government minted a further 1,411,000 of the same coins, as well as 1,000,000 gold 5 ruble coins dated 1898 on the reverse and again with the portrait of Nicholas II on the obverse.”

Would it be good to add this information to these coins pages?

I thought I had quite a rare coin until I stumbled upon this information.

5 rubles are minted with 1911 dies too. “Presumably” as per reference book and not by wikipedia.
