Comments

These novodel pieces (official restrikes) were struck using the same reverse die as the official coins, and using a 5 Rouble obverse die from Saint Petersburg, 1755 (for Russia). While the exact date these novodels were struck is unknown, they would have been struck in 1758 at the very earliest.
