Confederation gold Patten 20 Francs 1873 MS62 NGC, Brussels mint, KM-Pn26, Fr-493, HMZ-21227a, Divo Proben-16. Angel head mintmark. By Leopold Wiener. A stunning gold Pattern issue with exquisite, honey-tinged coloration and exceptional flash that emanates from the fields, cradling the bold illustration of Helvetia in a glorious light. The reverse is equally alluring, with few marks noted in the expanses and crisply defined edges throughout the wreath motif. Very much a conditional rarity at this level, and sure to inspire collectors as such.
Estimate: 4000-5000 USD
