1846 Russia 25 Kopeks 1 1

[Tobias J Reily]

So it's been a while (6 months) since I found my first 25 kopeks in mint state, my colourful 1859. I just received this having paid £185 ($223). It is in a much higher grade than I thought, but I'd like your opinion on the grade again. Here are some photos I have taken just now. The obverse is stunning, the reverse is also reflective but does have some light scratches that you can see if you zoom in on the photo. The rim damage you can see at 11 o clock is extremely light.

The fields are reflective and I can see my face when looking at the reverse fields.

I'm happy with it and I think it will grade well.

Very nice St. Petersburg Mint coin with Pavel Alekseev as moneyer.
