gxseries Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Been hunting these overstruck coins for a while and these can be quite uncommon to really scarce. While overstruck coins may look ugly, some are really worth a fair amount.

one-kuna Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 i can see SPB letters from barok kopek important is its edge - which one your piece have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexbq2 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 It can only have the net edge, as the baroque kopeek with SPB inscription is overstruck on top of a 5 kopeek with netted edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gxseries Posted September 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Oops - I think I didn't make myself clear. The main highlight is the collection of overstruck coins that I had in this link: http://www.gxseries.com/numis/rus_imperial/overstrike/rus_overstruck.htm Hope you enjoy it.

STEVE MOULDING Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Very nice! One of my favourite areas :-) One correction, you can find Elizabeth-over-Ivan roubles starting in 1741 (not 1742). I have one. Best, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKB Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 I love the 1795 mm. It is a gem and a rare find in any condition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
