Sure! Even though they ranged from 50 to 100 CHF, so it won't be something like 1835 Family Rouble, but I will show them as soon as I get them

Coins for Poland from 1707-1709 struck by Peter I
ultra replied to ultra's topic in Russian Coin Forums
I just wanted to know an overall background of creating these coins ... Do we know how much were struck? Were they melted later or the mintage was very low? Why only shostacks and tympfs, no other polish denominations like very popular trojak (3 grossi) or ort (1/4 thaler)? And by the way, can you tell me why these were created?: http://www.m-dv.ru/monety-rossii-1700-1917/kid,7/mid,7/nid,63/types.html http://www.m-dv.ru/monety-rossii-1700-1917/kid,8/mid,7/nid,63/types.html -
Hello, Can anyone help me providing any kind of information about this small but very interesting series of coins? The only thing I know is that they were struck for Russian army in Poland (?) with polish coin standard - timf and shostak (6 groszy). http://www.m-dv.ru/monety-rossii-1700-1917/kid,7/mid,12/nid,121/types.html Shostak seems to be much more uncommon than timf. Unfortunately I do not know Russian and the only short info I managed to find was in Russian. Thanks in advance.

Thanks Rarenum, Frankly I don't like that "regular" patina, with the only darker places between letters and small details. Looks like cleaning. When looking on larger pictures I got from the seller it looks much worse than mount removed, it has signs of a repaired hole. One letter is also changed incorrectly (?) - A instead of K. Planned to bid it but now I'm going to pass ...

Thanks, I'm wondering why it got such a high (?) price as for a damaged coin (the seller says he dug it up). It reached over 4.000 dollars.

Pretty nice coin. Which version on m-dv.ru is this? http://allegro.pl/rubel-rosyjski-1718r-srebrny-i4012835473.html

I like the idea of this topic. Take a look at some Russo-Polish rarities from newly opened Czapski Museum in Cracow. I will post more later.

Hey, I am confused by this example of Warsaw Mint issue Rouble. Look at the two lines under the "Rouble" sign. The one on the left side is obviously shorter than the one on the right. I don't see any scratching or any other kind of tooling near that line. I searched the internet but I couldn't find any similar example. Can it be some new die type? Another interesting thing about this coin is that it is probably overdated - look at the last "4".

Occupation (OST) iron 1,2,3 kopecks 1916 -PCGS - beware of fakes
ultra replied to Timofei's topic in Russian Coin Forums
Thanks for letting us know! Actually the seller is known also on the biggest polish auction platform - allegro.pl, he has very similar or maybe the same nickname. And that person is selling regularly OSTs in mint condition - usually 3 coins per auction (looks like he has pretty a number of it) and he always gets about 100USD for it or more. -
I also lack KM one in my collection, I've only got EM version .... But I'll ask my friend if he isn't going to sell one of his examples. Here is my coin:
