Russia
Catherine II gold 5 Roubles 1782-CПБ MS62 NGC, KM-C78b, Bitkin-80, Sev-328, Diakov-435. An alluring issue struck roughly halfway through the reign of Catherine The Great. While highly sought-after in all grades, higher denomination gold issues from Catherine's reign are quite difficult in Mint State, and particularly so with the eye appeal of the present example, which features a bold strike and gleaming aurous surfaces with relatively few distractions. A must-have for the discerning collector of Russian gold.
