French Protectorate. Muhammad al-Habib Bey gold 10 Francs AH 1345 (1926)-A MS65 NGC, Paris mint, KM252, Fr-13, Lec-440. Bright golden luster, with noticeable die-polishing marks and the appearance of a Specimen issue. The strike is bold and only tiny marks are noted. Only the second example of this rare (83 minted) issue that we have offered. The first being an MS63 NGC example sold in our January 2000 New York sale for $2000 hammer. That piece, and the currently offered Gem example, are the only two pieces certified by NGC and PCGS combined. Extremely rare.
