Description

RUSSIA. Gold 2 Rubles, 1720. Moscow (Red) Mint. Peter I "the Great". NGC MS-65.
Fr-91; KM-158.5; Bit-97. The sole finest graded example of the date in the NGC census, this tantalizing representative offers a crisp, clear portrait of the famous czar along with a somewhat stylized standing figure of the St. Andrew along with his saltire cross. Extremely well centered and struck, with a golden-orange nature further accenting the devices. For the connoisseur and advanced collector of the series, it is difficult to imagine a superior or even equivalent example being available anytime soon, making this opportunity one which simply cannot be missed. As such, VERY RARE and extremely important.
