Valuation of Georgian imitation of Lysimachus type Stater

9 berichten
Hello,
Long time no see! I came back with a pretty hard question for you guys. I know that the coin cost is what the buyer will pay, but I really need estimated price on this one. It can be honest guess also :)
I have found auctions where similar ones went from 4,000 to 40,000$.

If it is an imitation, than I would pay the value of the metal...
(my opinion...)

Does this help?

There are a lot of different variations...

When he says imitation, he doesn't mean a modern fabrication​. Unless you think ancient imitations have no value besides their metal content.

​the way I see it they are all imitating same kind of Alexander Lysimachus coin but the price range is huge. For example:

Chf almost equal to $

​as we can see on previous auctions they have a bit of value :D links I have posted are from 2011 and 2016 , PetrusAscanus link is from 2018. All of them are Eastern Europe imitations.
Very interesting info in your link PetrusAscanus, thanks :)
As I said, I can be wrong!
I admit I was thinking of a modern imitation, but they surely are not modern!
So it is a nice coin!!!!

​I like this coin a lot! Considering to buy it.. but I don't trust my numismatic knowledge enough. Especially in valuing such a rare coins
It's very rare and so valuable. Before metal detector era its price was 20,000$ and more. Now its price is about 5,000$
