France
Republic Specimen 5 Francs 1849-A SP66 PCGS, Paris mint, KM761.1, Gad-719. An ideal representative of this early Republic issue defined by both an exacting strike and by its delightful watery surfaces, immaculately preserved and dressed in varied metallic and sky blue tones. Tied for finest certified by PCGS, and difficult to imagine meaningfully finer.
