Saudi Arabia
Abdal Aziz bin Saud gold 4 Pounds ND (1945-46) MS61 NGC, Philadelphia mint, KM34. Rather scarce so fine, this Philadelphia Mint issue which was used to pay the Saudi Arabian government for oil rights, shares the same gold content as four British sovereigns. A number of trivial handling marks, along with a few more heavy-handed abrasions, are scattered throughout the open expanses, but choice detail across the design elements clearly overpowers any of the minor imperfections noted on this piece.
Estimate: 1500-2000 USD
