Goldberg sale 104, lot 4400
Russia G104-4400r.jpg

This specimen was lot 4400 in Goldberg sale 104 (Los Angeles, June 2018), where it sold for $54. The catalog description[1] noted, "Russia. 5 Kopecks, 1773-EM. Catherine II. PCGS graded AU-50. From the Ora Eads Collection." This type was struck 1763-96 in the Ekaterinburg mint for circulation in Russia during the reign of Catherine the Great. Hundreds of millions were issued between the Annensk, Moscow, Sestroretsk, Kolyvan, Ekaterinburg (shown here) and St. Petersburg mints. This date from this mint consumed nearly 2,000 metric tons of copper. 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: 38,829,000.

Specification: 51.2 g, copper.

Catalog reference: Bit-231; KM C-59.3.
