Miklos Horthy Regency gold Proof Restrike 100 Pengo 1938-BP PR67 Deep Cameo PCGS, KM-XPn41, Fr-595. This modern gold restrike, often referred to as a fantasy piece, is part of the 1965 Commercial Series that was specifically struck for a U.S. numismatic firm in Ohio and features the initials "U.P." above the reverse the motif. Commemorating the 900th Anniversary of the death of St. Stephen, this most attractive example features his likeness along with the stylistically pleasing Hungarian Coat of Arms. Struck with polished dies, this specimen displays an exceptional amount of cameo contrast, highlighting crisp design elements that absolutely soar above jet-black pools of reflectivity. Upon rotation, those glossy surfaces ignite, setting the devices ablaze in glorious, sun-kissed radiance. An altogether sparkling jewel, currently tied with only one other certified specimen in this top designation.
Estimate: 5000-7000 USD
