Napoleon III Proof 5 Francs 1856-A PR Details (Cleaned) NGC, Paris mint, KM782.1. A sublime Proof example of this popular type that features the bare-headed portrait of Napoleon III with crowned and mantled arms. Despite the details designation, the vibrant surfaces flash with iridescent peach hues, elevating eye appeal and minimizing the effect of horizontal hairlines that cover both sides. Rarely encountered in this format, and not to be overlooked.
