RUSSIA. Ruble, 1864-CNB HO. NGC MS-62.
Y-25; Bit-76. A SCARCE issue in impressive grade. The mintage for this year may seem formidable at over 100,000 pieces struck but considering that this is only a fraction of the mintages of later years for this type with most examples being at least somewhat circulated this piece becomes even more impressive. Choice surfaces showing only trivial tiny bag marks and no rub to points of relief are coupled with attractive lilac gray toning with full underlying luster to make a very pleasing example on the eye. Tied with three other pieces in this grade as the finest certified. NGC MS-62.
Estimate: $3600.00- $4500.00
