This specimen was lot 21304 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2020), where it sold for $12,000. The catalog description[1] noted, "Rare and Appealing March 13, 1751 Russian Ducat. RUSSIA. Ducat, 1751 MAP:13. Elizabeth. PCGS Genuine--Bent, VF Details Gold Shield. A very appealing example of the St. Andrew style Ducat with month and day in exergue on reverse. Pale orange-gold, deepening in hue at the obverse peripheries and in the protected areas of the devices and legends. Flan is slightly wavy, as seen on even high-grade Russian ducats, and we note a shallow scuff from left obverse field to Elizabeth's chest. Most examples of this the 1751-dated issue in archived auction records are of the April issue, while we note only 4 auction appearances of just 3 different examples of the March 13 issue going back to the year 2000." This type was struck in many varieties and some, as this one, are dated with month and day of issue. The massive mintage must have been followed by an equally massive melting, as they are very rare today.
Recorded mintage: 13,016,000 for all varieties of 1751, including C30.2.
Specification: 3.47 g, 0.986 fine gold.
Catalog reference: Fr-110, Bit-37, Sev-160, KM-C31.1, Dia-235; Uzd-69.
