RUSSIA. Ruble, 1898-AT. St. Petersburg Mint. Nicholas II. NGC PROOF-63 Cameo.
KM-Y-61; Bit-323. Commemorating the unveiling of the monument to Alexander II in Moscow. Already a popular type as a business strike, this immensely impressive specimen is VERY RARE as a proof, with the present piece offering blast white, fully blazing surfaces along with a provocative frosting to the devices. Despite being issued during the reign of Russia's final czar, Nicholas II, it features the bust of his grandfather, Alexander II. Assuredly one of the finer examples of the proof emission that one will likely encounter.
Estimate: $20000 - $25000
