morganhuls Valued Member United States 130 Posts	Posted 02/08/2019 11:36 pm To me it kind of reminds me of the Peter II Ducat coin; it has the same face on the front, but but the words around it don't match. Report this Post to the Staff

Jay1234 Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 02/09/2019 07:44 am I had a feeling. Luckily I paid very little as it came in a large lot of world coins. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7956 Posts	Posted 03/04/2019 07:56 am As pointed out by the original poster, this coin cannot be found in English language catalogs. There is a 2 kopek coin with a reverse that is similar: https://www.NGCcoin.com/price-guide...duid-1539672. I have also seen this type (KM-n56) listed with a Bitkin catalog number of 609, but I do not have access to that catalog. Does your link give a catalog number or some other reference for the coin? (Sorry, but I cannot read Russian). Even for a rare coin, it would normally have been cataloged. Edited by tdziemia 03/04/2019 08:39 am Report this Post to the Staff
jaunas3 Valued Member Lithuania 83 Posts	Posted 03/05/2019 07:02 am tdziemia, sorry, but I cannot find more information of this coin. This my link does not give a catalog number. I just try to translate, what is writen in this my link. (This is a money sistem of Peter III period. This coin "2 #1082;#1086;#1087;#1077;#1081;#1082;#1080;" is the test of portrait coin edition.The test of portrait coins like this were released in a small circulation. And these coins are very expensive). Sorry for my bad english ;) Report this Post to the Staff
tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7956 Posts	Posted 03/05/2019 07:34 am Thank you for the information. Indeed, if it is a "test" or pattern for a coin that was never struck for circulation, it might not appear in a catalog. Report this Post to the Staff
