allen.moore Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Fellow who is offering this one for sale says he thinks it is an overstrike from a Peter I coin, but he's not sure. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think? A clear overstrike over a Peter I kopek. See some of the host coin's letters above, see the upside down А of КОПЕИКА entering into the Н of ДЕНГА Many - if not all of the 1731 ДЕНГА are more or less distinct overstrikes over Peter I's kopeks Sigi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexbq2 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Recently some auction (I think MiM) had 173(1-4)Denga struck on a Peter The Great Denga! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gxseries Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Definitely an overstrike. Again, if you can't explain any of the fields where it's supposed to be clear and you see some letters / patterns in there, you should try to explain why where possible. Once you do this repeatedly, it becomes a lot easier to find out what the original host coin is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
