French Colony 6-Piece Certified Proof Set 1889-A NGC,
1) 2 Sapeque - PR64 Red and Brown, KM6, Lec-7
2) Cent - PR64 Red and Brown, KM1, Lec-42
3) 10 Cents - PR63, KM2, Lec-131
4) 20 Cents - PR62, KM3, Lec-190
5) 50 Cents - PR63, KM4, Lec-255
6) Piastre - PR62, KM5, Lec-271
Paris mint, KM-PS1. Mintage: 100. The first of two complete French colonial Proof sets that we are pleased to offer in this sale. Individually each coin contained ranks near-choice or finer, a degree of preservation that results in undeniable visual charm when considered alongside the cabinet tone which has settled over the services. This observation holds particularly true for the largest included denomination, the Piastre, which exhibits deep steel-blue obverse coloration and a charming reverse wateriness that culminates in a pale golden glow at the periphery. A very scarce opportunity to own such a set!
