Republic silver Specimen Essai 5 Francs 1898 SP65 PCGS, KM-Pn99, Maz-2122. By O. Roty. An absolutely fabulous pattern for the unadopted 1898 5 Francs - engraved and struck to an incredible standard, its large-size and high relief giving a more medallic feel. The majority of the planchet is toned to a dark dove-gray, iridescent tints encroaching from the peripheries; devoid of luster, the texture of this piece is far more delicate and somewhat matte. A classic rarity of the French Republic series of undeniable beauty.
