SWITZERLAND. Basel. Duplone, 1795. NGC MS-62 Prooflike.
Fr-70; HMZ-2-92b. One year type. Obverse: Oval, garlanded Cantonal Arms, "RESPVBLICA BASILIENSIS" around; Reverse: Votive flame in ancient tripod, "DOMINE CONSERVA NOS IN PACE" (translated to: "O Lord Preserve us in Peace") around. Extreme glossy reflectivity exists in the fields with a few planchet streaks mixing with light handling to determine the grade. A dash of tone of both sides only serves to further boost the overall vibrancy. RARE and underrated as a type with the last appearance we've found being an example offered over five years ago by Hess-Divo in May of 2013.
