While it was fun to see dealers that you recognize, it was a real horror that most of the Russian coins that I have been hunting down were either bought out, and hence almost a genuine lack of real Imperial Russian coins.
Neverthless, it seems that there were plenty of coins sold, from cheap ones to really expensive coins - I have seen several people buying gold coins in cold hard cash which easily exceeds 1000USD in a single transaction
To add to the horror - I met with someone that I have dealt online but never in real life!
Regardless, I refused to go back home until I hunted some decent coins at a ridicious price, some gone as low as 50%. Yes, PERHAPS IT IS TIME TO STOP COLLECTING MORE RUSSIAN COINS!
And I guess... pictures are important

I probably will scan the pamplets that I got later on today, after taking all these photographs...
I think I will start to sell at least half of what you see there, so if you are interested, PM me before it gets too late!
