Ottoman Empire. Abdul Hamid II gold 5 Qirsh AH 1293 Year 7 (1882/3) MS67 NGC, Misr mint (in Egypt), KM280. A superb Gem free of flaws though the date seems to be somewhat weakly engraved. Currently tied for the finest certified, the weakness around the date as well as the two 'peck' marks to the left of the date and letter fi appear to be from imperfections in the die (see the next 2 lots). A similar example in the same grade previously hammered for $470 in our September 2013 Long Beach Auction #3026 (Lot 26890).
