Lot description:


RUSSIA. "Dassier" Ruble, 1757-CNB RI. St. Petersburg Mint. Elizabeth. NGC AU-55.
KM-C-19C.3; Bit-284 (R). Featuring a fairly sharp strike and very little in the way of actual handling, this impressive and VERY RARE specimen stands apart from most issues of Elizabeth in that it displays the elegant engraving of Genevan-born medallist, Jacques-Antoine Dassier. One of the impressive and tantalizing RARITIES of the entire Russian series, it offers a deep gunmetal gray tone throughout, with some glints of brilliance emanating from the protected areas and a hint of burnished golden toning accentuating the legends.

Estimate: $20000 - $30000
