France
Napoleon III gold 5 Francs 1854-A MS66 PCGS, Paris mint, KM783, Gad-1000. Reeded edge. A supremely gem minor that can rarely be said to come finer, with none surpassing the present piece at PCGS. While Gadoury suggests that this variety is more common than the plain edge, we note that surprisingly few reeded edge pieces have appeared on the market in recent years.
From the Caranett Collection
