According to the PCGS census, this specimen is the top-graded example. A delightful lustrous medal with elegant dark chocolate brown toning, safely preserved despite minor scratches on the slab. A variant of the medal with a reduced diameter, matching that of the commemorative rouble, is exceedingly rare compared to the larger diameter version. Medalier: A. Griliches. Diakov 1528.2. Very rare.
