Napoleon III silvered-bronze Uniface Obverse Essai 2 Francs ND (1862) MS61 NGC, Maz-1657A. A very nearly matte striking, just subtly watery in the fields, with darkened charcoal accents creating a perceptible depth and imposing feel to the iconic obverse design for which this piece is a trial. The reverse appears to carry an MX, likely a set of initials.
