Alexander I Poltina (1/2 Rouble) 1802 CПБ-AИ MS63 NGC, St. Petersburg mint, KM-C123, Uzd-1340, Bitkin-42. A superbly lustrous first year example of this scarce type, also boasting the lowest mintage within its series. A hint of golden tone is present near the edges on the obverse, adding even more charm to its overall beauty. This example is the second highest graded specimen across both major services, a testament to its extreme conditional rarity and very seldom seen brilliance.
Estimate: 6000-7000 USD
