RUSSIA. 10 Rubles, 1767/6-CNB. St. Petersburg Mint. Catherine II (the Great). PCGS AU-55 Gold Shield. Fr-129a; KM-C-79a; cf. Bit-15 (overdate not noted). Overdate variety. An incredibly resounding specimen that would appear to be just a tad conservatively graded, this premium quality example offers a great deal of shimmering mint luster remaining and displays on the lightest amount of gentle handling. The clear overdate on the reverse merely augments its already robust appeal.Read more about this item in our Coin of the Week blog post, <a href="https://www.stacksbowers.com/News/Pages/Blogs.aspx?ArticleID=german-princess-turned-russian-empress">here</a>.
