Siberia. Catherine II copper Novodel 10 Kopecks 1764 MS66 Brown NGC, Suzun mint, KM-N12, Bit-H1007 (R2), Brekke-490. A breathtaking specimen unlikely to be found in as fine a condition as this premium gem. Rendered and struck with such precision as to articulate minute and individual pieces of fur adorned by the central wolves as they support the crowned arms. Glossy, cobalt-tinged waves of luster illuminate mint red silhouettes of the legends placed upon this hearty offering. Accompanied by an intriguing set of rubbings of the present offering and original Jacques Schulman envelope. A rarity of immense proportions that seldom comes to market in such admirable states of preservation.
Ex. Jacques Schulman
