Alexander II 5 Kopecks 1859-EM MS64 Brown NGC, Ekaterinburg mint, KM-Y6a, Bit-304. Variety with ribbons at crown. Tied for the finest across all variety and color designations for this date at NGC, and blessed with an abundance of electric blue iridescence that contrasts with traces of mint red gripping the contours of the devices. Only faint instances of friction preclude a gem designation, rendering this offering one of the highest collectibility.
