EAST PRUSSIA: Elizabeth I, of Russia, 1758-1762, AR 6 gröscher, Königsberg, 1759, KM-B290, Olding-454a, PCGS graded XF40. During the Seven Years' War parts of Prussia briefly came under Russian control and were governed by Russian governors. Imperial Russian troops occupied East Prussia at the beginning of 1758. On December 31, 1757, Empress Elizabeth I of Russia issued a ukase about the incorporation of Königsberg into Russia. On January 24, 1758, the leading burghers of Königsberg submitted to Elizabeth. Five Imperial Russian general-governors administered the city during the war from 1758–62; the Russian army did not abandon the town until 1763.

Estimate: 250-350 USD
