Nicholas II Rouble 1901-ФЗ MS65 NGC, St. Petersburg mint, KM-Y59.3, Bitkin-53. Obv. Bust of Nicholas II left. Rev. Crowned double-headed eagle with date and value. An appealing original Gem example, The strike is exemplary, with bright luster beneath attractive blue and gold toning. Only minuscule marks are noted under close examination. Only a single piece has been certified finer by NGC and PCGS combined, and we doubt that it is appreciably nicer than this stunning example.
