Not the same date i know but should give u a ball park estimate http://www.vcoins.com/world/nbnumismatics/store/viewItem.asp?idProduct=729&large=0 says $399 USD EDIT- RSFSR (PCOCP) Chervonetz gold coins [SIZE=-1]Minted 1975 - 1982 Fineness: .900 Actual Gold Content: .2489 troy ounce[/SIZE] this should help u calculate melt value of it at least
I disagree. The 1923 ruble coin is quite scarce these days and you might be looking at probably at least 1-2,000 USD. Nice coin by the way.
Beautiful coin , must of been when the communists started in power , good historic coin , gold too , Spock where are you ? rzage
privat my dear friends you are looking at a chervonetz trade coin -the 1923 is worth 750 in unc and 1250 in bu with the way the russian market is behaving you would be lucky to get it at that price i would reckon a 1000 easy maybe even more than 1500 if you get that graded and it comes out a good number
Thank you all To all who have replied, I really appreciate the feedback. I have a place to start. I guess that I will get it graded. Where? Thank you, Mike
if you are going to sell it NGC/pcgs ngc gives out higher grades but grade for grade PCGS brings better prices. no need to flame me if your opinion differs and you have drunk from a particular TPG cool aid
Thanks again, I will look up grading company or procedure online. Hopefully not too expensive. This was from my great grandfather's hand me down. I am not a collector - but he had about 20 gold coins and a bunch of USA nice looking coins -who ever knew that there was a 1/2, 2 and 3 cent coin in America, wierd brown color to some of them!! It would have helped if he label them especially the world coins.
anytime. i would get a recognized and reputed dealer to send the coins in for grading its not worth the effort to send it in yourself if there are just a few coins. also if the other coins are as good as the one you posted you can consign them to heritage that should help you get good returns.
