alexei Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Hello fellow collectors. I decided to dig deep into my pocket and purchase 5 golden roubles from the rein of Nicholas the 1st. Ended up paying 615 British Pounds or about 950 dollars and I am yet to receive it. But I was wondering if you can give me heads up- what to expect to spot if it was a fake or not, apart from weight and diameter I know nothing on this matter as this coins were always too expensive for me. Also did anybody used MIZAR M24 gold tester to determine the gold level /fineness- are they any good or will they damage the coin when testing? Thank you in advance.

alexei Posted April 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Oh yes, by the way what is the realistic price for 5 golden roubles from 1852? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
