Peter I gold 2 Roubles 1722 AU58 NGC, Moscow mint, KM158.6, Bit-143 (R1), Petrov 15 Rub. (Plate 27, 180), Diakov-1212 (R2). Large head variety. Obv. Laureate, armored, and mantled portrait of Peter I right. Rev. St. Andrew standing, facing, holding cross. A stunning, fully struck example with bright mint luster and surfaces free of all but the most minute marks. Only a hint of rubbing is visible on the high points. Exceedingly rare in this near-mint condition, with NGC and PCGS each having certified one example finer. This is the finest example we have seen.
