Republic gold 150 Balboas 1947 MS64 NGC, KM-unlisted, Fr-unlisted. An off-metal strike, from somewhat porous re-worked dies, likely struck in the 1970's. There are three small privy marks on Balboa's shoulder, the meaning of these unknown to this cataloger. Three examples of this unusual striking are known at present, the other piece coming from the fabulous Richard Stuart collection of Central America (also graded MS64) and an example graded MS67 in the NGC census that remains unseen on the market. Fully brilliant golden mint luster, with iridescent, minimally marked surfaces.
