one-kuna Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 Hello everyone, just want to hear your opinion on recently sold 1825 Constantin ruble graded by NGC as Antiquarium forgery and sold at Heritage around nine thousand bucks. How NGC graded a fake of a forgery fake coin ? Another word, Trubetzkoy ruble is an antique forgery but this one graded by NGC is fake of the Trobetzkoy ruble.

kopeikin Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 Apparently a key word in description is "antiquarian" meaning fake was produced some time ago. Why this may bring 9000 dollar price I do not know. I guess one who bid for it still had a hope was is not fake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-kuna Posted January 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 thank you so much for your respond, the proper name of it I think should be at least like "antiquarian forgery of Troubetzkoy ruble" or "modern copy of Troubetzkoy ruble" thanks again for your words, I think so too, somebody sees this coin as a real ruble I do not have Bitkin on hands, this ruble was reference as R4 in Bitkin. Does it say that there that this ruble is a fake of Troubetzkoy ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
