RUSSIA. Ruble, 1724. Moscow (Red) Mint. Peter I (the Great). NGC AU-50.
Dav-1660; KM-162.4; Bit-934 (this coin illustrated). Offering a supreme attractivity to it, this impressive Ruble demonstrates a soft coat of golden luster and mint glossiness to it. Light wear is seen on the high elements of the design, though this wear is not effacing to the overall beauty of the piece. A single spot on the reverse likely accounts for the grade, as this piece otherwise has the eye appeal of a higher graded About Uncirculated example. A relatively SCARCE type, as we have never offered an example of this Bitkin number. To view all items from the Sigma Collection, click here.

Estimate: $2000 - $4000
