Minh Mang gold Tien ND (1820-41) MS62 NGC, KM212, Fr-5, Sch-209.1. A rare early gold issue that remains lustrous and fully detailed with warm orange-gold toning accents that gravitate around the outer design recesses on both sides. For the sake of accuracy, we note the appearance of a test cut on the obverse edge at 3 o'clock as well as several intentional flyspeck marks near the reverse border at 3 o'clock that interestingly enough, appear on the reverse of all but one example we've seen.
