RUSSIA. 1/2 Ruble (Poltina), 1775-CNB OA. Catherine II (The Great) (1762-96). NGC EF-40.
C-66a; Bit-292; Dia-325. RARE. Mintage of only 91,000 pieces, with few having surviving today. Plenty of remaining original luster in the protected areas of the reverse, and all through the legends on the obverse. What little wear there is tends to be amplified by the light strike, with obverse legends and the eagle's wing-tips revealing almost no wear at all. Vastly superior to most seen of the issue, what few there are. NGC EF-40.
Estimate: $1000.00- $1500.00
