Leopold I silver Proof Pattern 5 Francs 18xx PR63 NGC, KM-Pn40, Dupriez-336. An intriguing silver Pattern featuring the bust of Leopold I and crowned arms. Attractive, cabinet tone covers both the obverse and reverse; however, upon rotation, a watercolor-like pattern of electric-blue and champagne color effortlessly coats the surfaces. With handsome design motifs that were struck without the second portion of the date and noticeably strong detail throughout. Rarely-offered and choice in all regards.
Estimate: 1250-1750 USD
