Republic 2-1/2 Shillings 1893 MS61 NGC, Pretoria mint, KM7, Hern-Z31. Bold definition, with full, bright luster and a touch of golden patina. The surfaces, while showing no wear, or rubbing, even on the high points, do exhibit light handling marks, thus defining the grade MS61. The appearance is quite nice for the stated grade, and this conditionally very rare issue is the most difficult date of the type in Mint State. Only two examples have been certified finer by NGC.The Read Collection
Estimate: 4000-5000 USD
