Venezuela
Republic gold Pattern 5 Bolivares 1930 Gem UNC, KMX-Pn6, Kienast-398, 35mm/34.85gms. By Karl Goetz. A privately minted issue, designed by famous German medalist Karl Goetz, and likely struck later (since all observed examples show some die rust within the reverse arms) using the dies. Scarcely seen, the issue features the uniformed bust of Vicente Gomez, a miliary general and the ruler of Venezuala from 1908 until his passing in 1935.
Estimate: 5000-6000 USD
