2 Ducats, 1714. Krasny. Armored and caped bust r., title Tsar Peter Alexeivich. Rv. Triply crowned Imperial eagle in modern form with St. George shield on the breast, holding scepter and orb, continued title Autocrat of All the Russias 1714. Fr.86, Bitkin 17, Diakov GM 78.1, Sev.39A. Without any form of edge beading, struck on a well-prepared 26.4 x 25.8mm planchet weighing 7.0 grams. This is a thoroughly satisfying example of the original striking of this historic "Double Chervonetz" or 2 Ducats of the great modernizing Emperor. Its overall fabric demonstrates the great strides taken in coinage technology and design by this point in the Emperor's reign though the title Emperor is not yet in use. Light wear, tooling in fields, and slightly uneven surfaces characterize this rarity. About Extremely Fine.
