Catherine II Rouble 1775 MMД-CA UNC Details (Obverse Scratched) NGC, Moscow mint, KM-C67a.1, Bit-133 (R3), Uzd-1067 (Extremely Rare). This Moscow date is orders of magnitude more rare than it's St. Petersburg counterpart, in contention for being the rarest circulation Rouble produced under Catherine the Great.

Despite the problems, this is a Catherine the Great Rouble of great consequence, surely among the condition census of extant survivors for this prized date/mint.
