  1. This illustrates the point about popularity: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=270552061349
  2. I don't have it on hand, but the edge looks good and clean. But yes the coin has been cleaned, probably with some chemicals no traces of patina left. I've seen dealers in Germany do that to silver coins.
  3. A popular issue, very competitive pricing these days! Got this one not too long ago:
  4. Because enough people are willing to pay the high prices.
  5. That does not explain the high prices that Novodels habitually command.
  6. As I recall, Uzdenikov gave a brief definition of a Novodel as “An object struck at some date later than that indicated on the object, at the mint with original or newly cut dies, or outside of the mint but with original dies.” The reason for the last part of the definition is due to the fact that some Gangut roubles were struck at GIM with original dies.
  7. I also have this one - 1810 2 kopeeks СПБ-ФГ:
  8. Here's my 1810 ИМ over СПБ (МК) 2 kopeeks:
  9. There's an error on it? I can't quite see as the images are so small, but I thought this was that uber-rare old type/new type "mule" coin.
  10. As I understand, collecting Soviet Russian circulation coins has become quite popular these days. Now that hobby involves measuring microscopic deviations in minute details on otherwise identical coins. So distinguishing coins by stylistic changes in the design does not seem like a hassle in comparison (to me).
  11. Well, we know that the type I showed is R1 (Bitkin). So if Steve could count up the number of that type of coins in his DB, we could compare it to the number of Kuna's coins and draw our conclusions based on that.
  12. Somebody posted this scan on one of the forums some time ago. Has all kinds of interesting variants:
  13. By 'new' crowns I meant the crowns that appear on the regular EM 2 kopeeks of 1810 and subsequent years, I am assuming that the crowns with the narrow base that usually appear on the 'chicken' or 'bee' type eagles are of a slightly earlier design. Compare the crowns on mine with this: P.S. Adrianov does list your coin and mine as a separate variants
  14. Yes, I’ve seen that medal during my search. Both sides are quite lovely. Thank you for all the information, I’ve updated the OmniCoin description.
  15. Thank You! The only online reference to this medal that I've found was from 1898 Spink & Sons Numismatic Circular #70. They attributed it to the Foundation of the Moscow University in 1754. The 'yu' is on the right side - 109.2
  16. A new medal, and the same question. What does Diakov have to say about this one? http://www.omnicoin.com/coin_view_enlarge.aspx?id=966374
