You don't need to wait
Fakes exist. They are rare also, but less expensive :D

Just did a completed items check on E. Lowest price $46. Highest price $347.
Most common RSs sold in the $55 to $80 range.

Trying to decide if I should buy a collection of about 10 common RSs and resell. :confused:

Eric,

What is common will remain common for the longest time. What is rare usually only gets rarer. The choice is yours :D

Jeff,

I touched (physically :D) my first fake Goznak way back in 1998, and it was a very nicely made one too. They are around :o

Common RSs aren't getting harder to find, or more expensive? :rolleyes:
That's what I mean. And *IF* I can get 'em for $25 I think I could double my money. That's assuming I don't fall in love with the whole set and keep them all......:p

Just 5-6 years ago I sold two Goznak RSs at about $2K each. Wow!

Andrey,

Are you sure of that number? It is 10,000 higher than other known awards :confused:
If real, could you please post some pics of the award and/or booklet.
