This specimen was lot 1469 in Stack's Bowers ANA auction (Chicago, August 2014), where it sold for $1,175. The catalog description[1] noted, "RUSSIA. 5 Kopek, 1783-KM. Catherine II (the Great) (1762-96). PCGS MS-64 BN Secure Holder. Excellent strike, slightly off center to planchet. Lovely purple colored toning." This type was struck 1781-86 in the Suzun (Kolyvan) mint for circulation in Russia during the reign of Catherine the Great. Hundreds of millions were issued between the Annensk, Moscow, Sestroretsk, Kolyvan, Ekaterinburg and St. Petersburg mints. Many survive today but few in choice condition. Russia has the distinction of being the first country to issue decimal currency, as 100 kopeks = one ruble.
Recorded mintage: 3,046,000.
Specification: 51.2 g, copper.
Catalog reference: KM C-59.5; Bit-785; Dia-474.
