Siberia. Catherine II copper Novodel 5 Kopecks 1772-KM MS64 Red and Brown NGC, Suzun mint, KM-N70, Bit-H1071 (R2), Brekke-471. A blazing red specimen of this classic type for which originals seldom come in better states of preservation, with this being the first example we have offered in over 20 years. We have been able to trace remarkably few representatives through auction records--perhaps just 9 others in nearly three decades--clearly pointing to the great rarity and desirability of the issue.
Ex. Goldberg Auction 85 (June 2015, Lot 4316)
