RUSSIA. Ruble Novodel, "AM 7162 [1654]" (ca. 1775). Moscow Mint. Aleksei Mikhailovich. NGC MS-64.
KM-N-AA2. Dated in Old Cyrillic. Quite alluringly toned and charming, this dazzling near-Gem crown radiates with great eye appeal and an exacting strike. Despite being a novodel issue from a century later, this captivating appeal is obvious, while the pullaway peripheral toning augments its already strong character.
Estimate: $6000 - $9000
