RUSSIA. Ruble, 1725-CNB. St. Petersburg Mint. Peter I (the Great). NGC VF-20.
Dav-1659; KM-166.1; Bit-1336 (R2). Star without radiance at the center of reverse arms. Despite some evident usage in circulation, the present example provides still attractive details and deep toning. A rather RARE variety without rays surrounding St. Andrew's Star in the center. Avoiding major fault, the surfaces do display some slight planchet roughness, though this is not egregious or unsightly. A certainty to be much desired by the scores of advanced collectors of Russian Rubles, and we expect fierce competition to be the proud new owner of this specimen.
