Kingdom of Napoleon. Napoleon 5 Soldi 1814-M MS66 NGC, Milan mint, KM-C5.1. A tiny yet marvelous jewel, with a sparkling argent obverse accented by lilac and evergreen color at the peripheries and a reverse that is heavily drenched in violet color which brightens to a fuchsia upon rotation. Typically encountered in far lesser qualities, and as such, the eye is immediately drawn to the sharp portrait of Napoleon with all of his facial features boldly rendered. A miraculous survivor and a total Gem in all regards.
Estimate: 800-1200 USD
