RUSSIA. Ruble, 1859. St. Petersburg Mint. Alexander II. PCGS AU-55. KM-Y-28; Bit-567. Commemorating the unveiling of the monument to Nicholas I in St. Petersburg. Featuring an equestrian statue of Alexanders predecessor, Nicholas I, this splendid prooflike crown dazzles with a great deal of shimmering luster remaining in the fields and yields some frosting to the devices as well.
