Don't know much about this era. But the hint on this coin seems clear ?
"russia"in latin letters won't be Russia as in the state. This leaves only "Prussia" as in the German state Brandenburg-Prussia as a candidate ?

Prussia
Ducalis

KM#387 under Brandenburg (German States)

If using an older Krause this series was missing entirely.
always willing to trade modern UK coins for modern coins from elsewhere....

A very confusing series if looking in Krause - they start under Brandenburg, continue in the Prussia section and end under East Prussia which is listed under Poland...

They didn't used to be in at all, so at least a small improvement :)
