Switzerland
Confederation gold 20 Francs 1888-B MS62 Prooflike NGC, Bern mint, KM31.3, Fr-497. Mintage: 4,224. Boasting a low mintage for the type, the 1888 20 Francs saw only 4,224 produced, as compared to 100,000 produced the following year and 125,000 the next. For this reason it remains a clear target for collectors of the Swiss series, rendering the present selection, both Mint State and fully Prooflike in the fields, a particular treasure to behold. Even the smallest facets of the design are expressed to utter clarity, with bright golden reflectivity enlivening the planchet to appreciable effect.
