Carol I gold 50 Lei 1906 MS63 NGC, Brussels mint, KM39, Fr-6. Struck to commemorate the 40th year of Carol's reign. The second largest commemorative denomination produced in 1906 for Carol, engraved in extremely low relief yet with extremely precise detail; the shallowness of the designs has allowed the planchet to fully represent the dies. Intensely bright lemon-gold color transfixes the viewer, glossiness prevalent in the fields, whilst hints of deep sunset toning blazes from the peripheries and from points within the centers. Not often found at the choice level grade, a pleasing representative of above average quality.
