Fuad I gold Proof 500 Piastres AH 1351 (1932) PR64 NGC, London mint, KM355. Currently tied with one other example (PCGS) in this penultimate quality, with beautifully golden and completely reflective surfaces that contrast against the soaring designs. This sizeable gold issue retains its fresh appearance, with minor wisps noted in the low-lying mirrors. And, while the SCWC reports that Mint records do not indicate a Proof striking, this offering easily qualifies as an early emission, serving up all the hallmarks we've come to expect in a Proof specimen.
