RUSSIA. 25 Kopek, 1866-CNBHO. PCGS AU-55 Secure Holder.
Y-23; Bit-141. Mintage of only 36,000 pieces, with few set aside soon enough to sport the kind of preservation this piece exhibits. Semi proof-like fields that accentuate the surface marks in the fields, hence the AU grade. Were this specimen originally a frosty piece, one has to wonder if it would have graded mint state. PCGS AU-55 Secure Holder.
Estimate: $700.00- $1000.00
