SB622-72393r.jpg

This specimen was lot 72393 in Stack's Bowers Collector's Choice sale (Costa Mesa, CA, June 2022), where it sold for $1,920. The catalog description[1] noted, "RUSSIA. 5 Rubles, 1867-CNB HI. St. Petersburg Mint. Alexander II. PCGS AU-58. A flashy example of the always popular type with some muted luster under the developed tone." This type is listed for 1859-85 and is fairly common in circulated condition. In 1886, the standard was revised to match the French twenty francs d'or, resulting in a weight reduction to .186 troy oz (see KM Y42).

Recorded Mintage: 3,494,000.

Specification: 6.54 g, 0.917 fine gold, .192 troy oz AGW.

Catalog reference: Fr-163; KM YB26; Bit-15.
