Offered is a most handsome 1762-issued 35mm bronze medal, sunk by Brusnitsyn to commemorate the unvailing of the ‘Millenium of Russia’ monument at the Novgorod Kremlin, Diakov 707.2. An unusual portrait arrangement, and handsome obverse secure this medal’s place in the pantheon of Russian numismatics. The medal is in good overall condition, showing some wear (as is typical of these), as well as retaining a lovely, original medium patina. A very pleasing example.
