Note
Highly collectible piece with beautiful patina and nice luster in the fields. The only known piece on the market! It is not clear whether this is the original 18th century struck. It is probably a later strike from the end of the 19th century. The design of the medal is a highly representative embossing of Tsar Peter the Great.
