Dengas are made out of the Peter's kopeeks. I think there are some rare polushkas (1730?) struck on a Peter's large denga flans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not rare at all. I have a few with traces of Moscow 1 kop (remnants of design elements or edge) Those that were not re-edged are not very common. I am still looking for one.

Thee_Immortal_One Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 My experience has been: 1734 Polushka (over 1728 kopecks) and 1731 Denga (over Peter I kopecks) are the most common overstrikes I run into. I actually collect those dates just for the overstrike. 1731 polushka overstrikes also show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 This is one polushka that I have: I didn't bother about the condition coin as the price is good: less than a dollar or something as it was sold in a set which wasn't properly identified. Can't complain much about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
