| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Krasny" designation refers to the Krasniy (Red) Mint in Moscow, a secondary facility pressed into service during Elizabeth's reign to supplement St. Petersburg's output. Pattern coinage from this mint in 1756 reflects an active period of denominational experimentation — the Russian treasury was struggling to reconcile silver content standards with the practical demands of small-change circulation. This particular type 2 variant suggests at least one rejected design preceded it that year.
Bitkin 662 is among the rarer Elizabeth-era pattern attributions. Few examples are documented in major collections.
