A T-34 with a ZiS-4 57mm anti-tank gun, IIRC it had much better penetration against armor than the 76.2mm gun but the HE shell was almost useless.
Edit:
Curses!

T-44?
Edit:
Looking at it I don't think it is, the muzzle break and lack of hull gunners position seem to preclude it.

Hint: T-34- (something).
Replace (something) with a number higher than 85.
