ARGENTINA. Tierra del Fuego. 5 Gramos, 1889. Buenos Aires Mint. NGC AU-58.
KM-Tn8, Janson-7. A wonderful example of this RARE issue of Julius Popper in Buenos Aires, lustrous and attractively toned with few surface issues of note excepting the light friction along the highpoints as noted by the NGC designation. Seemingly the scarcest denomination issued by Popper and highly desirable in this fine state of careful preservation.
From the Collection of Dr. James Eustace Bizzell, II.
Estimate: $3000.00- $4000.00
