Elizabeth silver Medal on the Establishment of the Colony of New Serbia in 1754 MS63 NGC, copy by T. Ivanov, Diakov-98.2 (R2), 63mm, unlisted in Reichel and Smirnov. Obv. Crowned and mantled bust of Elizabeth right, Timofey Ivanov below bust. Rev. Minerva, reclining on a shield, pointing with righthand at monument with arms on New Serbia. NGC has mistakenly put the wrong date on the holder. The correct date is 1754, not 1854. Both sides exhibit a bold strike, with superb gold and blue patina. Minor hairline scratches are noted in the left obverse field. An extremely rare issue.
