Netherlands East Indies
Dutch Administration gold Specimen Pattern 2-1/2 Cents 1945 SP67 NGC cf. KM316, cf. Scholten-92. Obv. Crowned arms of the Netherlands divides the date 19-45. Rev. Inscription in Javanese and Malayan script. A very small 5 is counterstamped on the obverse near the stop by the E of INDIE. Essentially pristine with refined fields that showcase stunning mirrored reflectivity and light cameo-producing frost on the raised surfaces. A very scarce pattern in gold, and easily the finest we have seen.
