This man is a genius (thumbs u

 

How he managed to capture all the details on this coin i will never know .. it must have taken in an age to get the lighting right, it also must not of helped it being in a scratched slab..

 

Thanks a million Bruce..

 

If anyone fancy's:- what coin is it and how many were minted also what grade do you think NGC gave to it ?

Nice one! It's a 10 Kopecks from St. Peterburgh mint. No idea on the number minted. As for the grade - i'll take a stab with AU58.

 

Cheers,

Very nice pix.

[koincollector]

Very nice picture and great coin. I would always take AU58's like this over many MS63's!

[bsshog40]

Nice coin there Dooley. Bruce did a very nice job of imaging it also!!

"Guesses" still good?

 

How about 25 made of it....being a copper pattern and slabbed as MS65bn

SPOT ON !!!!!! :banana:

 

 

i wonder how many of the 25 are still about ?

 

Fancy a "gestamate" on its value ? Could you imagine how much a 25 piece American coin would go for from this date ?

Look at the Liberty Five cents 1913 (5known) $5,000,000

[RareSov]

$10,000 ?

Wayne,

[Bruceswar]

Had I known you were looking for a Heritage Estimate on the coin, when I had it in hand I could have personal taken it over there for them to look at in person. Short drive for me.

Good morning, Dooly.

 

The Russian 10 Kopek is BEAUTIFUL. I was curious about so I hunted through Standard Catalog of World Coins, 1801-1900 (my only reference for patterns) and there it is designated as N496. No mintages are available but the value listed is $500. Values can be WAY off in these catalogs...especially on rare items. It sure is a beauty!!
