| Additional information |
Piedfort strikings from the Elizabeth period were not produced for circulation — they served as presentation pieces, likely destined for court officials, foreign dignitaries, or the empress's own cabinet. The 1756 date places this during the Seven Years' War, when Russia had formally entered the conflict against Prussia, and the St. Petersburg mint was simultaneously managing wartime coinage demands alongside prestige productions of this kind.
The Bit#H and Diakov#N prefixes both signal a non-circulating specimen category in their respective reference systems — the H and N designations denoting novodel or related special strikings depending on the cataloger's classification.
