RUSSIA. Ruble, 1897**. Brussels Mint. NGC MS-62.
Y-59.1; Bit-203. Two stars in edge lettering. Blinding halogen-headlight luster that would require protective eyewear if it were any brighter. An absolutely sensational first impression upon viewing. While not a champion of the census numbers, there are times when the overall look of a coin trumps the technical grade, and this coin is for certain one of those instances. Very light, evenly distributed abrasions in the fields which cap the grade. NGC MS-62.
Estimate: $700.00- $1000.00
