Cuba
Republic Souvenir Peso 1897 MS62 NGC, Gorham mint, KM-XM1. Variety with "PAT. 97" on truncation of the neck, thus the final circulation design for this date. Toned Mint State with very faint incompleteness of strike on the higher points and trivial surface handling evidence preventing a higher designation. A scarce issue with a mintage of 4,856 pieces, very scarce and much in demand in this pleasant quality.
Estimate: 1200-1500 USD
