KM-Y-59.3; Bit-57 (R). This enchanting and RARE KEY DATE engrosses the attention of all Russian collectors with amber hue on the surfaces that display no evidence of friction or wear. Only two examples of this date are graded higher by NGC, placing it near the pinnacle of desirability. Some inconsequential marks are noted in the fields, but these are so vanishingly unimportant as to do nothing to the beauty of this piece.
