Venezuela
Republic 5 Reales 1858-A AU50 NGC, Paris mint, KM-Y11. A scarce and highly popular one year type, seldom seen in as high grades as this Almost Uncirculated example. Quite apart from its technical quality, however, the eye-appeal of this piece is especially strong; the detail very shallow and even so as to leave no localised areas of weakness, the surfaces lustrous and bright and dappled with a light white-gold tone. Elusive in any grade, a superb offering of the type for the discerning collector of Venezuelan coinage.
