<p>[QUOTE="Krasnaya Vityaz, post: 101534, member: 1791"]Sestoresk Ruble of 1771 (one in Triton Sale right now, $40000 estimate) Basically it is a Ruble coin struck in bronze that weighs over a kilo. It was a proposed coinage to alleviate the usage of silver in Russian coinage. Needless to say the economics and limited technology to strike such a large coin were mitigating factors in it's not advancing beyond the proposal-trial strike stage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
