Description

Sophia as Regent for Ivan V & Peter I gold Novodel 4 Ducats ND (1682-1689) MS61 NGC, Fr-65, Diakov-N1. 13.22gm. The Imperial double eagle design seen here and on other multiple Ducat issues under Sophia (as Regent) is in contrast to the singular and fractional Ducat issues that utilize portrait designs of Sophia and the young co-Emperors Ivan V and Peter I that were still in their minority. Peter the Great would eventually seize control of Russia from his half-sister Sophia upon his maturity, officially becoming the sole Czar following his half-brother Ivan V's death in 1696. This 4 Ducat version is the most significant weight of all the gold Novodels for the type, not rare but certainly not common by any means. One of only three NGC certified problem-free examples of the 4 Ducat, not overly brilliant at the present assignment, but highly appreciable nonetheless.

1682-1689年索菲亞擔任伊凡五世和彼得一世攝政王時期Novodel 4杜卡特金幣。MS61 NGC。
13.22克。索菲亞攝政期間,這款4杜卡特以及其他杜卡特都刻有俄國皇室雙頭鷹圖案,而單杜卡持或以下面值則刻有索菲亞連同年幼的共治沙皇伊凡五世和彼得一世肖像。隨年月漸長,彼得一世從同父異母姐姐索菲亞手上奪回權力,並在哥哥伊凡五世於1696年駕崩後獨掌大權。這枚4杜卡特的重量為所有Novodel金幣之最,鮮有一遇。此為NGC記錄中,三枚不帶重大瑕疵的例子之一,即使未算獨領風騷亦魅力無窮。
