Nicaragua
Republic 3-Piece Certified "Essai De Monnaie" Metal Trial Piefort Pattern Centavo Set 1892,
1) Copper-Nickel - MS63 NGC, KM-Unl..
2) Copper - UNC Details (Spot Removed) NGC, KM-Unl.
3) Aluminum - MS60 NGC, KM-Unl.
A third set of patterns, this trio lacking a denomination on the reverse. On the copper piece, several small scratches appear over a spot beneath the Nicaraguan arms. Nonetheless, quite rare individually or as a set, and an item that would be very difficult for the collector to replace.
