Peter I Novodel 3 Kopecks (Altyn) ND (1718) MS62 PCGS, Red mint, KM-NF6, Bit-H1251 (R2). Inverted L variety. A scintillating representative of this engage Novodel issue, indicated as such by the inverted L witnessed to the reverse below the legend. Before St. George slaying the dragon would become a famous motif utilized by the British, Russians would employ this fantastic imagery as seen here. Completely lacking in striking weakness across uniform gunmetal surfaces, we note the example at hand to be the finest certified across major grading services.
