  1. Hi, Time to reshuffle the collection a little. Lots of modern silver coins, but there are also some XIX century medals like this one. I am located in Japan so shipping will be done from the place. Send your offers please here is the link to gallery of pictures: https://postimg.org/gallery/1dy8xfi4g/ P.S. some of these coins are listed there too. (search for silvernumiz)
  2. Hello SchutzenfesterInfo is helpful, thank you. I have got the mintage info while browsing through the whole thread. I am not into medals much but the details on the medal caught my attention. 100 years ago people made medals that look as a real piece of art. Medals people have here in the thread is something unbelievable. The medal got MS65 from NGC. I bought it slabbed already as the second I saw it I have got a thought that I must have it. Questions: 1. I have noticed that very few shooting medals graded ms65 or above (common is ms63). Does the grade matter when pricing the medals? 2. What is a surviving mintage of the medals? I read somewhere in the thread, that some medals were melted before. Is there any way to determine what is a population of these medals today?
  3. I was looking at Swiss shooting talers for awhile now. Came across this medal. The only info I get is what is written on slab - 1894 Swiss Shooting Fest, Lausanne.
  4. Is it fake, restrike, or proof? any other info?
  5. yeah, I found them ... read some articles about Empire gold Thank you!
  6. bobh, thanks for reply. As of mintmaster on edge - i couldn't find it. Edge looks like this http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/267/tor5rub.jpg/ As of weight - 4.29-4.31gr ... though my scales are not that good ... margin of error is pretty high
  7. I wonder if they real according to pictures as I am newbie in that field.
  8. Yeah, bargains show up time to time, but I find soviet and imperial silver coins pretty much overpriced comparing it to ebay's.
  9. Proof like Lenin was sold for $160, may be there were too few of this sets still alive? Or hiding somewhere and no one cares to sell them. I got it in Japan, with shipping and etc for 1000 yen, equivalent of $12. P.S. Overall I am surprised and the same time relieved - can sell some of these and add silver soviet and imperial coins for the proceeds
  10. Have 1 set from 1970 1 rouble with Lenin. Tried to price it before listing on ebay. Here what the winning bid for one alike was : http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&hash=item231c16d360&item=150795113312&nma=true&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&rt=nc&si=hMOW41kw5%252FlpQ4Zb8KEQkqC%252FR7Y%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc#ht_3022wt_1023
  11. If seller is new to ebay I doubt he will get a decent bids for the coins. May be to offer the coins' set on different forums is an option, but again, from the user with low feedback or few messages I doubt there will be a glut of buyers. One of the options is to ask someone with ebay account to do it for you, but you will have to pay some %, because the ebay account holder might pay the taxes.
  12. This is my coin actually and the second one I sold on ebay (another was sold for $68). And I am not counting others that I sold for 60 a piece via forums. In Russia they are selling for $90-100 on local internet auction. Asked in many different forums why is the coin so regarded. To tell long story short - huge bag of these gazelles was either lost or bought out by some "entrepreneur" and kept while the rest of the 1994 series were sold. So, most of the red book collections are incomplete. So, I take it as a chance to add some other coins to my collection that will be regarded the same way P.S. I've got these coins few days after I started the thread. One of the pawn shops had them, so spend some time to get them out of the boxes with coins.
  13. thanks good source it is stated that 30000 coins were minted ... the same as in Krause so, as of both sources - the same mintage for most of the bi-metalic red book (wildlife) series. still no reason why this particular coin priced higher than others in the series.
  14. As of Krause - the same mintage as others - 300 000. Do not have other catalogs to check though.
  15. Y#369 1994 50 rouble bi-metalic coin with Goitered Gazelle. while most of the other coins in the series cost 4x times less, this one is in $40 range. What is the reason?
