sigistenz Posted October 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 Not me this time around either. Good luck, Sigi! Thank you all - but it did not help. I only watched few coins, i.e. the large copper. The Siberian 10kop1767--(lettered edge) went away at EURO 4400 (nearly $6000). Who would have expected that price (plus gravy)! Sure it was a nice coin, the nicest I remember having seen. The edge lettering was weak and off center but bold, showing no wear. Too bad my pockets are not deep enough... Another outstanding coin I viewed closely was the 5kop1794AM reoverstrike. It turned out to be wrongly attributed: it had edge 6(\\\\\\\\\) (Bitkin 176 - R4), not as described Bitkin 175 - R3 edge 5 (XXXXXXX). The overstrike job was almost too nice for AM, coin had a raw surface, color looked somewhat doctored. I did not feel tempted. That one fetched EURO 7500. Only upon my return I read Alex's posting about reoverstrikes. BTW, the coins were composed of various consignments. The lot of 8 EM piataks contained an overlooked 1791EM reoverstrike, pretty rare but not very nice. Few items viewed and yet 2 errors spotted. Let's be positive - I saved the money.
