Description

Gorgeous Matte Romanov Dynasty Medal

Nicholas II gold Matte "Romanov Dynasty Tricentennial" Medal 1913-Dated MS64 NGC, Diakov-1550.2 (R3), Smirnov-1473b. 32.5mm. 25.54gm. Dies by P. Stadnitsky (unsigned). Nicholas II made a grand spectacle of the 300-Year Anniversary of the House of Romanov rising to power in Russia, starting with Michael Feodorovich who was elected Czar in 1613, succeeding the House of Rurik. A special, one-year Rouble issue was created, and a number of different Medals were struck to celebrate this occasion. Alas, the Romanov Dynasty would soon end with Nicholas II, as he abdicated the throne as a result of the February Revolution in 1917, and was later executed by the Bolsheviks in 1918.

This is a beautifully executed Medal, the Matte surfaces providing the perfect canvas for the tasteful, regal designs. The near-Gem assignment is appropriate for this example, as the crisp surfaces are largely pristine except for the occasional abrasion. This is the only gold example of the issue currently certified at either major grading service. A rare opportunity for Russian Medal enthusiasts to acquire an Imperial piece struck with Matte surfaces.

1913年尼古拉二世「羅曼諾夫王朝三百週年紀念」霧面金章。MS64 NGC。
32.5毫米。25.54克。模具由Stadnitsky設計（未署名）。留里克王朝結束後，米哈伊爾一世於1613年被選為沙皇，並開啟了羅曼諾夫王朝。到了1913年，尼古拉二世大張旗鼓慶祝羅曼諾夫王朝迎來三百週年，並鑄造了發行了僅一年的特別盧布以及各式獎章加以紀念。然而，羅曼諾夫王朝最終完結於尼古拉二世手上。他在1917年二月革命後退位，隨後於1918年被布爾什維克處決。這枚金幣匠心獨運，霧面質感為堂皇大氣的設計提供了絕佳的背景。而近珍品分數亦不失公允，除寥寥數道裂痕外，表面大體上銳利分明，品相優秀上乘。此為目前兩大評級公司中唯一的金質版本例子。對於俄國獎章收藏家而言，入手這款霧面金章旳機會實在千載難逢。
