I suspect it was one of the charaxes lots as there was a pair of charaxes lydiae which are very rare, especially a female in good quality or possibly the pair of fourneri.

I have seen the pictures of the specimens and as far as I can tell they were the real deal. Specimens from 1836 with good data from a known collector from that time and the overall appearance of the specimens was good. The experts who put prices on the specimens at Rieunier often make big mistakes. If they had noticed the specimens and advertized them properly they would have fetched a lot more... Somebody really made a steal.

Always difficult to know if they were genuire. Some with no label at all... At least two persons were convinced enough to bid as far.
