RUSSIA. 12 Ruble, 1831-CNB. PCGS AU-53 Secure Holder.
Fr-158; C-179; Bit-40; Sev-604. VERY RARE large platinum issue. Despite this being from the year with the largest mintage it is still only a scant 1,463 pieces struck. Highly attractive steely gray appearance with high luster throughout the broad fields. Bag marks consistent with the grade but no single one is overly detracting. Crisply struck with fine detail throughout with only mild even wear to the central rider on the shield. A brilliant, wholesome and impressive example of a difficult type to obtain. PCGS AU-53 Secure Holder.
Estimate: $20000.00- $25000.00
