RUSSIA. Ruble, 1721 (Dated in Cyrillic). Kadashevsky (Moscow) Mint. Peter I (the Great). NGC AU-58.
Dav-1655; KM-157.5; cf. Bit-444-5. Dated in Old Cyrillic. Incredibly attractive and alluring for a type that is generally always encountered with an issue or two. Here, the surfaces remain rather pleasing and wholesome, with a gunmetal gray cabinet nature and glistening golden brilliance highlighting the devices. A few minor planchet splits and impurities are noted, but not in any way distracting. An assured cut above that which is seen in the marketplace.
Estimate: $1250 - $1750
