France
Republic gold 100 Francs 1901-A MS65 PCGS, Paris mint, KM832, Fr-552, Gad-1137. Tied for highest certified with one other at NGC, this iconic gold issue seldom even approaches gem, often exhibiting bagmarks and hairlines. The present piece is spectacularly unmarred, surfaces glowing with mint luster, every aspect of the winged Genius boldly rendered and crisp, a slight coppery tone bolstering the eye appeal. Premium for the type, and perhaps even for the grade, an essential addition to the grade-conscious collector's assemblage of French gold.
