squirrel Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 Yes. traces of the wingtips and crown. "baroque" = "wings on cloud" I have heard both names to describe this design, one my favorites... but as i write this, price is just passing $200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gxseries Posted April 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 I wouldn't want to imagine how much this awful overstrike would sell 1759 2kopeks over 1755 MMD 1 kopek over 1727 5 kopeks (most likely HD or MD) Cleaned etc but I couldn't care less as it was cheap. (thanks to Banivechi) Most probably easier said than trying to find one such example - I have another example but it's ugly. 1757 2 kopeks over 1756 1 kopek over ? 5 kopek Others have similar example?

banivechi Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 My last find today: 2 kopeks 1759 overstrike over 1 kopek 175? MMD (no year visible for the base kopek, only the right wing, some clouds and the MMD initials: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banivechi Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Seems that the link doesn't work, so i've steal the picture: Three days more to the end of auction and the bids are already at 64 euro (~90$) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrel Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Looks too perfectly "struck" 50/50 to be a real overstrike. Something doesnt smell right with that one.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
