“Rare Peter III Ruble, PAMP Suisse, and Krugerrand at DGW Auctioneers’ upcoming auction”

Peter III was an emperor of Russia in the 18^th century, and during his time he established the first state bank in Russia and encouraged mercantilism. Though he is responsible for pulling out of the Seven Years’ War, his reign is largely overshadowed by the fact that he was overthrown by his wife, Catherine the Great, just 186 days after he became emperor, and died soon thereafter. Though his reign was brief, there was time to mint money with his likeness, and one of the rare coins from this period–a 5 ruble gold coin–is available at auction in the Rare Coins, Estates & Collectibles sale offered by DGW Auctioneers Inc.

Among the many gold coins and other items in the sale, PAMP Suisse 999.9 fine gold bars, Valcambi Credit Suisse fine gold bars, South African Krugerrands, and Canadian maple leaf gold coins are notable. Beyond gold items are works of art and textiles from China, Japan, and Persia. A 2007 Toyota Avalon XL 4-Door Sedan with just 62,000 miles is also available in the sale. There are also antique and contemporary pieces of fine furniture, full sets of fine dinnerware, several cut tanzanite gemstones, vintage stereo receivers, several lots of fine bottled wine, and more.
