Russian Authority 2 Abazi 1832-BK MS61 NGC, KM75. Scarce in availability as well as in a Mint State quality, this attractive example struck under Russian authority presents steel-colored surfaces with darker graphite color that clings to the design motifs. The fields are pleasingly lustrous, showing moments of champagne iridescence when rotated, and the open expanses are without any mentionable handling marks. Very engaging and visually incomparable, with less than a handful of specimens certified finer for the type.
Estimate: 1000-1500 USD
