RUSSIA. Ruble, 1726. Red (Moscow) Mint. Catherine I. NGC MS-62.
KM-177.1; Dav-1665; Bit-44. This lovely beauty is brazen with luster that almost glows golden. Exceptionally well struck, this Ruble is very much free from distracting contact that sometimes plagues larger silver strikes. This piece is the highest graded example present in an NGC holder, with no equals at the same grade. Altogether, a magnetic beauty with allure that is sure to requisition much attention from the numismatic community.
Estimate: $10000 - $12000
