gxseries Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Tried to look for an example for my collection but they seem to be really uncommon? I'm sure someone here would have an example floating around... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sigistenz Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 That's a pretty tough type coin Only the 1757 is seen every now and then, but it's always fake. Wolmar 2012 catalog quotes: 1757 VF $40, XF $300, 1758 VF $60, XF $400, 1759 VF $50, XF $350. No later dates. Sigi - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrel Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Ive kept one eye open for one of this type for some time now, and indeed are hard to find. They do crop up on the better auctions, such as World Wide, but usually go for prices such as Sigi's quote of Wolmar estimates. Did you try Basok's site? He usually has some uncommon copper listed.

gxseries Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 Basok definitely seems to have one. But the price... ouch. That said, he does have some Soviet coins that I have been wanting for quite a while. Also off-topic - some Russian coin prices seem to have fallen down for instance Peter I polushka coins and Paul I coins in nice XF condition - they seem to have become more affordable compared to the past couple of years. Most other coins have generally risen in prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esme Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 The Elisabeth’s Polushkas especially of 1757-58 can rather often be found at the Russian market. Though its’ condition is VG-VF in almost all of the cases. Now-a-days there are many of them dug out in Russia. Talking about the coins in XF condition and higher they are comparable in rarity with Peter’s the Great Polushkas in the same condition.

STEVE MOULDING Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 I sold this one not long ago ex AUREA, Sale 7, May 2003, Lot 1439 Buyer paid $50. Not the best condition, obviously, but I'd agree, you don't see them very often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
