RUSSIA. Platinum 3 Rubles, 1828-CNB. St. Petersburg Mint. Nicholas I. PCGS MS-62 Gold Shield.
Fr-160; KM-C-177; Bit-73. Mintage: 20,000. A sharply struck representative of this first year platinum issue with soft frost appearing over the designs and evident reflective qualities displayed in the fields. Considering that these issues tend to be seen with significant problems, this problem-free Mint State example should generate great excitement from collectors seeking an example of this historic world's first platinum type.
From the Pinnacle Collection.
Estimate: $3000.00- $4000.00
