Geneva. Canton Shooting Commemorative 10 Francs 1848 MS63 NGC, KM138. The first year from this two-year series, featuring warm, gunmetal patina and an enchanting amount of underlying, iridescent bloom. The surfaces are completely awash in a beautiful blend of champagne, peach, and royal blue tone which only adds another layer of interest to this already spectacular piece. Due to its commanding size, this is a scarcely encountered type that is always in demand, especially in this level of preservation.
Estimate: 3000-4000 USD
