RUSSIA, Tsardom of Rus. Ivan V & Pyotr I, with Sophia Alekseyevna as Regent. 1682-1696. AV Chervonetz – 3/4 Ducat (19mm, 2.77 g, 1h). Novodel issue. 18th century restrike. Crowned facing busts of Ivan and Pyotr; above, double-headed eagle with wings spread, holding scepter and globus cruciger / Crowned bust of Sophia facing slightly right, head left, holding scepter. Diakov N4; Kaim 1858 (2/3 Chervotez); KM –; Friedberg 59. VF.

Ex Richard L. Lissner Collection (Triton VIII, 10 January 2005), lot 1723.

Kaim lists two varieties of 2/3 chervonetz pieces, which Friedberg splits into 3/4 and 2/3 denominations. Sophia was regent for her younger half-brothers Pyotr and the disabled Ivan until a palace revolution replaced her with the 17-year-old Pyotr. During the regency Pyotr’s formal education was neglected, allowing him to follow his own course, exploring, sailing and shipbuilding, military training, and a practicing of western ways (not to mention carousing). All this contributed to the great revolutions of Pyotr’s reign.
