<< <i>I just looked at the Brit listings. There are some nice pieces all right, but it pales in comparison with the auction of a year ago. >>
You can say that again.
By far ,the finest known, I didn't even know specimens existed. NGC's pop on these are one in MS66 and one in MS63 (mine).
Edited to thank 3mark, I'll check them out too, I had heard rumours that a nice collection was going to be sold by Ponterio in their January auction. I might even finally make this trip to NY, if only to see them in hand.
Re-edited to add that the Heritage auction takes place on the 8th and 9th of January, I thought the NYINC was on the 12-15th of January.

Ponterio has the "Charles O'Donnell Collection of Greek Coins" whoever he is/was.3Mark
More supreme coins:
Cyprus 1901 3 piastres PCGS PR67
a Gem quality coin with exquisite toning comprised of blue, orange and russet. Perhaps the finest known; we have seen no others graded this high. Estimate: $1,200 - $1,500.
Cyprus 1901 9 piastres PCGS PR65deep gray toning on the obverse with wonderful, multi-toned patina on the reverse. The toning on the reverse is the most attractive this cataloger has seen on any coin! Estimate: $1,250 - $1,750.

The Swiss Federal lots on the other hand are very average, (Heritage), with the exception of (rarecanadian's?) 1923B specimen 5 francs that did not meet reserve last time.

Was that RC's? That reminds me I haven't given you my Christmas gift ideas yet?
<< <i>I'm confused, why does the Heritage auction take place a week before the show? And when does the Ponterio auction take place?
Heritage does it's auction the weekend before so the dealers can place the coins in their cases. IMHO

Server hiccup, I believe.

He did!
BTW - The Gemini catalog is very, very heavy on ancients, and pretty weak on World Coins - only 39 out of 608 lots with NO Japanese gold or silver.
1906 Rouble
3 taler (1648)
Have you Russian collectors seen this?
A gold 5 Roubles 1904 in Russian government slab, the Russian government answer to NGC and PCGS, the coin is UNC, and although not rare, from what we can determine these government certified holders are very rare. Estimate: $1,000 - $1,500.
