Comment
Collector's mark of Hutten-Czapski on the obverseInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 10 Roubles - Elizabeth (СПБ; Pattern) 1757 from the Russian Empire made of Gold (.917) weighing 16.57 g is that it was minted during the reign of Empress Elizabeth, who was known for her extensive collection of coins and medals. This coin is a rare example of a pattern coin, which was minted as a trial or sample coinage, and it features a unique design that was not ultimately adopted for circulation.
