With the “Peter the Great Egg”, a magnificent masterpiece by Peter Carl Fabergé, the 7th edition of this remarkable series continues. At the centre stands the splendid Fabergé Egg “Peter the Great”, brought to life in elaborate high relief. Surrounded by delicate floral ornaments and intricate engravings, the composition unfolds with elegance and exquisite detail.

The intricately crafted surface combines partly gilding, carefully polished sections, and brilliant colours. Particularly impressive is the finely detailed image of the famous Winter Palace at the heart of the egg, which strikingly emphasizes the historical connection to Peter the Great. Enhanced with a proof finish and complemented by the gleaming inscription “Peter the Great”,

the coin motif emerges with remarkable depth. With a relief height of around 2.2 mm and the characteristic reeded edge, this collector’s item is not only a technical masterpiece of minting but also a tribute to the unmatched artistry of Peter Carl Fabergé. The original “Peter the Great Egg”, created in 1903 for the Russian imperial family, is now housed in the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in Richmond, Virginia, and its estimated value exceeds 20 million US dollars
