FRANCE. 50 Francs, 1859-BB. Strasbourg Mint. Napoleon III. NGC MS-64.
Fr-572; KM-785.2; Gad-1111. Beautiful and intensely lustrous, with traces of die polishing visible through the fields. The devices are impressively sharp and frosty, paired against semi reflective fields on the reverse. Medium-gold in color and accented by subtle orange hues. SCARCE this fine, with only a single coin certified finer by NGC.
Estimate: $1600.00- $2000.00
