vasil Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 I've bought a 1811 rouble from ebay. It looks ok to me, but it weights only 20.36 gr. What do you think? Is It genuine? I have some worn roubles from the same decade and they weights a little more. I know that the admited weight for the imperial roubles before 1886 would be 20.598 gr. and if it is worn it is possible to decrease the number with 0.1-0.2 gr. But lighter is ok? I think that it was artificially toned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlyaE Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 Looks genuine to me and don't see any problem with the weight. Don't see much of the tonning, but looks like it has corrosion and was cleaned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vasil Posted June 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 Hey, thanx. I remember that at one coin fair at Brasov I refused some nice roubles because they were too light in my oppinion. Banivechi, do you remember? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
