Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 10/31/2014 09:33 am Alexander I became czar on 23rd March 1801, so your coin dated 1802 definitely falls into his reign. From the pictures I would say that it is an original strike. 1802 AI is the most common issue of the type, with a mintage over 5 million. Report this Post to the Staff
simone1978 Valued Member Italy 220 Posts	Posted 10/31/2014 09:38 am Probably having made many coins there are many variations Report this Post to the Staff
Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 10/31/2014 09:58 am Under Alexander I there were only 4 very similar types, all being very simple in the design. Within each of the types there would not be much variation being milled coinage, but to mill millions of coins requires quite a few die pairs but there are no detailed die studies for those coins as far as I know. Hope you enjoy your coin. Buona notte - 1am Saturday here, time to sleep. Report this Post to the Staff
thq Pillar of the Community United States 3343 Posts	Posted 10/31/2014 12:05 pm Peter II was tsar from 1727 to 1730. The ruble pictured looks to me like other Alexander I's I own. 1802 is close to the time of Pavel I, but the appearance of these rubles is very much different. Beyond that it's a very nice coin, with sharp detail and attractive toning. "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime."

simone1978 Valued Member Italy 220 Posts	Posted 10/31/2014 12:57 pm Thank you so much money is in excellent preservation with its patina, but what I can not find what needs to be written around the edge of the coin. Simone Report this Post to the Staff
thq Pillar of the Community United States 3343 Posts	Posted 10/31/2014 5:20 pm The expected edge for an 1802 ruble is "Gosudarstvennaia Ross. Moneta", in equivalent raised Cyrillic letters. While this is a fairly common ruble, I would estimate its value to be about $1000 in this condition. "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime."
