Show us your silver fractional and gold single and double ducats.
Given the run up in Liberty head gold prices, is there value there?

This is modern, either a jeweler's copy or an outright forgery. Contemporary, both Russian & Dutch, struck from professionally engraved dies.

I used to own this one

This is the only 2005 double ducat graded at either ngc or pcgs. My only "top pop" coin!

It was inevitable for a nearby country to not follow Austria’s example with their ducat restrikes.

@ChangeInHistory I would have had (a brief) seller’s remorse for it. And by now my new year’s resolution would have been to never have seller’s remorse again, because coins including collectibles are meant to change hands.😏

There is an incredible amount of value to be found in a huge number of series throughout the numismatic world when you start collecting things by date that are generally only collected by type.
