RUSSIA. Ruble, 1741-CNB. St. Petersburg Mint. Ivan VI. PCGS AU-58.
KM-207.2; Dav-1676; cf. Bit-25; Dia-16. Endlessly in demand due to the short reign of Ivan, this piece is in about as nice shape as this type comes with only one example being graded as better by PCGS. Only the faintest hint of wear is present on the high elements of the design. Free of any contact marks or nicks, the surfaces present wholesome and intact gunmetal gray colored metal. Sure to attract spirited bidding, this example should command much respect from the attractive nature of the specimen.
From the Mark and Lottie Salton Collection.
Estimate: $10000 - $20000
