Republic gold "Veld" Pond 1902 AU Details (Reverse Scratched) NGC, Pilgrims Rest mint, KM11, Fr-4, Hern-Z54. One of only 968 pieces of this wartime issue that were struck hastily to pay soldiers of the Second Boer War. A type that often exhibits damage from mounting after having been placed within jewelry as a memento. This piece, however, has retained quite nice surfaces without receiving significant damage, aside from a scratch in the upper area of the reverse. A rare opportunity to own a coin that without a doubt must have passed through the hands of a soldier over a century ago on the mountainous mining fields of South Africa.
