This specimen was lot 73127 in Stack's Bowers Collector's Choice sale (Costa Mesa, CA, June 2021), where it sold for $120. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "[[Russia|RUSSIA]]. 50 Kopeks, 1896-(AT). St. Petersburg Mint. Nicholas II. NGC AU-53. A supremely elegant minor, this specimen presents an alluring cabinet tone with just a small degree of gentle handling and some luster radiating from beneath." This type was struck at St. Petersburg 1895-1914. A few dates also come without the mintmaster's initials (KM Y58.1, 1896-99). Many dates are rare but this one is only scarce. The assayer's initials are on the edge.

''Recorded mintage:'' 17,402,000.

''Specification:'' 10 g, 0.900 fine silver.

''Catalog reference:'' KM-Y58.2; Bit-72.
