Russia 3 Roubles 1879 СПБ НФ NGC XF
Bit# 42 R2; Gold. Alexander II. An especially elusive date for the entire 3 rouble series, with a listed mintage of 5, but likely higher with the frequency these have been seen. Despite this, the 1879 is still quite rare and was likely seen as such when mounted likely for a necklace as noted by the mount removal. ex Heritage 232112. PCGS XF Details.
