Coins of Peter the Great (1699-1725)
The great reformer Peter I, the son of the Russian Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich Romanov, made an invaluable contribution to the development of the Russian state. His desire to introduce new technologies did not bypass the coin industry. The result of his work was a monetary reform that completely changed the system of monetary circulation in Russia. The European monetary system with full-weight and small change coins was taken as a basis. This is how gold chervonets and full-weight Russian rubles appeared. Our catalog provides detailed information on all types and varieties of coins minted during the reign of Peter I. A unique archive of lots with prices sold at significant numismatic auctions, including Gokhran sales in the early Soviet period, has been collected. The cost of coins is determined at large auctions, so the catalog will become an indispensable assistant in assessing the current market situation.
