Hi going to sell this coin but cant find any info on a previouse sales. It is a 1827 5 roubles it is 22.6 mm and weight is 6.54 grams. Any info on value would be a great help.
Thanks for your reply. When you click on the hammer like it says it takes you to the wrong coin a common silver 5 rubles. Regard Steven.
Well I was able to find lots of Chinese fakes. Agree with the poster that said best to send it to an auction house if you're selling so it can be authenticated/graded, etc. http://www.dhgate.com/product/100-24-k-gold-plated-1827-russia-5-roubles/260043936.html
My first reaction when I saw the coin, before reading the thread, was "I'm not sure that's authentic." Given the value of that coin, I hope for your sake that it is real. The odds, however, are likely that it is not. Send it to NGC and let them grade and authenticate it.
