France
Republic gold Proof Piefort 50 Francs 1978 PR63 Ultra Cameo NGC, Paris mint, KM-P620. From a tiny mintage of only 149 pieces. A magnificent double-weight issue that invokes the classic motif of the Hercules group and reverse wreath design that appeared on 19th-century 5 Franc issues. This piece appears to be conservatively graded, as it exhibits only a few tiny hairline marks.
