Coins of the Reign of Empress Catherine I and Peter II

The original edition was undertaken at the end of the XIX century on the personal instructions of the Grand Duke. In 13 volumes, most of which is occupied by the image of varieties of coins containing a full description of the unique collection in its entirety Russian coins of the imperial period, since the reign of Peter the Great and until the time of publication. The book provides detailed information on all issues of Russian coins, including year, place of issue, issue volume, features and even full information on the ligature of each issue. The meeting was released in small editions (a few hundred copies) - and since then is, of course, the most authoritative source on the Russian numismatics. All subsequent publications on this subject referred to the Assembly, but none of them could neither beat him on the completeness and depth of coverage of the material, nor to press it with the position of the main reference books on Russian coins.
