Alexander I Rouble 1802 CΠБ-AИ AU58 PCGS, St. Petersburg mint, KM-C125, Bit-28. Absolutely gorgeous, this visually stunning example of the type not only boasts a markedly high technical grade for the type, but furthers its claim to aesthetic singularity with a color palate that very much evokes a carving of precious stone--lapis lazuli flints float wistfully across seas of sunny granite, the mottling to the toning pattern making incoming light seem to crackle across the surfaces. Every angle and detail of the design appears chiseled by a glassy finish and radiate appearance to the fields that makes even this highly distinguished level of certification feel somewhat conservative.
