I acquired some Imperial Russian coins. I've been after this one for a while:

New Zealand 3P 1935. Mintage of 40,000:

 

Knowing the kind of coins you collect I'm honored to own a coin that you feel is worthy of your collection. Not a great pic but here's mine.

 

WOW. That is the biggest compliment I have ever received on ANY forum. I am truly humbled by your kindness and generosity.

 

1830 Poland 1 Zloty Nicholas I of Russia

 

1894 Rouble. Can someone shed any light on the actual mintage numbers please. Was it 3007 or 3,007,000. There seems to be some controversy on this subject.

 

Great coins, WC. I like the Rouble a lot.

 

1819 George III crown with some nice detail left and nice toning.

 

It's a beauty, congrats.

 

Thanks Mat, My move to collecting Crowns in affordable grades has rejuvenated my collecting interest.

 

Fantastic coin! Glad you've found a new reason to keep collecting

 

1803 5 Kopecks

 

Good to hear.

 

I got this today. 1979 Costa Rica 100 colones silver.

 

Interesting way of commemorating the Year of the Child theme.

 

Yeah, that's part of why I liked this one.

 

1899 10 Roubles. I've always loved the double headed eagle on the reverse of Imperial Russian coins

 

And today I think I did rather well for myself. Just acquired this shekel for 25% less than the seller purchased it.....and he had got it at a very competitive price. AU 4/5 and 4/5 and with pretty decent toning and details. I think on a good day and in the right circumstances it should make good money and help me defray the costs of some of my other recent acquisitions.

 

Except for the eight small CoAs (on the wings), Russia has the very same eagle these days. But on many coins they use the eagle of the central bank, not the national emblem ...
