Alexander III gold 5 Roubles 1889-AΓ MS65 NGC, St. Petersburg mint, KM-Y42, Fr-168, Bit-34. Variety with AΓ initials on truncation. The scarcer of the two primary varieties for this date, witnessing a steep drop-off of the certified population above this level. Displaying virtually mark-free surfaces, it is indeed to find any serious flaw with this selection, suggesting that a finer grade may very well be left wanting.
