Extrastarka Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Value of the coin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sturzny Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Looks like a nice example. In my experience the Russo-Finnish coppers are not getting the same markup that the silver and gold pieces are. If I were selling it in my shop, I would probably put a $75 price tag on it. In an auction situation with Russians bidding, it could bring more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 75 dollars might be a bit too optimistic even with the high prices that the Russians are willing to pay for. I'm not too sure if 1872 penni is scarce. Here is a link sold by a reputable dealer for a rough idea of price guideline: http://www.rustypennies.com/catalog/finland.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sturzny Posted September 3, 2008 Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 I wouldn't call it scarce but it is the better date (first year) of the dentilated Alex. II series. And based on the pictures I would say the coin in question compares favorably to what that dealer is offering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexbq2 Posted September 3, 2008 Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 I don’t collect Finland (for the moment), thought 75 is a bit too much but check out the Russian stats on this site (prices are in roubles): http://tsovin.ru/coins/?nom=1+%EF%E5%ED%ED...=2008&auc=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennysky Posted September 3, 2008 Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 Probably $25 is a good price even in this condition. Finland is still very attainable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
