[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 3997082, member: 8959"]I must confess, seeing these did not automatically trigger an 'Oh, wow!!' from me. However, only because I know nothing about Charles I Unites and Triples. I know now a little bit more after looking them up on acsearch, and now I see what you mean. Impressive! A total of 55 auction appearances are listed there (maybe some sold more than than once), so it does not appear to be inordinately rare, but it does fetch some high and incredible prices. So, it seems to be a very sought after type, (much like a J. Caesars denarius or a Colisseum sestertius would be among ancient collectors). Tell us more about them, please. I only saw examples from 3 distinct years (1642, 1643 and 1644). Any other years? What is the history behind them? how many are estimated to exist? By the way, I felt a little like this when I posted my recently acquired specimen of a Spanish Colonial Santiago mint Columnario - a very rare coin (only 5 known of the date, and only 52 examples of all dates combined). However, I do understand that not everybody knows (or cares) what they are unless you happen to be active in that collector field.[/QUOTE]
