Orange Free State. Republic silver Proof Pattern Penny 1888 PR62 NGC, KMX-Pn7a. Issued by L.C. Lauer and struck by Messrs. Otto Nolte and Co. of Berlin. A very scarce issue, this is the first example that we have handled or located in silver. The fields are reflective mirrors, serving as an alluring backdrop for the crisp devices. The first in this highly popular series to feature the elegant curved-top shield design and a desirable type in all respects.
