Full Version: Two fake 1762 Catherine II roubles on eBay/same dies
A bidder named Copy-coins has a bid in, they must know a good thing when they see it. 
I think I'm going to pick one of these up today. No, I'm not kidding my local coin dealer had some sitting in his bulk silver bin. Now the question is shiny or slightly circulated.

Yes, I know I need a new picture.
