Alexander II Proof Kopeck 1868-CΠБ PR65 Brown PCGS, St. Petersburg mint, cf. KM-Y9.2 (unlisted in Proof), Bit-533, Brekke-107. By all indications an incredibly rare Proof striking of this typically unremarkable copper minor, entirely unpublished in this format according to our research, and missing from the Sincona Collection, with only one other so certified at either NGC or PCGS. Gorgeously toned to a dark navy, the fields are intensively mirrored, a feature discernable even from an arm's length.
