gxseries Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Won this recently as the poltina that I had in my collection didn't look too great. This was what I had. As you can tell, the side with Paul I's monogram was engraved to show more details. And this is the one that I recently won. Nice lamination but the obverse text is pretty much worn out. To be honest, I'm quite torn - you have two coins with one good side. It's still a rather uncommon coin that pops up once in a while. I guess you can't always win them all. C'est la vie.

gxseries Posted September 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Would be nice to obtain a nice example like shown but I'm sure it will cost a fair amount. Nevertheless, happy with what I have. Remember buying the first coin while I was a student back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve D'Ippolito Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 My 1799 might even beat kopeikin's 1800 but of course it's not the same year. And it's also not mine any more (sold, Nov 2008, WWC auction). I was collecting by type and needed a heavy and light of each silver denomination. Never did get the heavy poltina.
