German East Africa
German Colony. Wilhelm II gold 15 Rupien 1916-T MS63 NGC, Tabora mint, KM16.2, J-728b. Arabesque below the T in "OSTAFRIKA" variety. A highly appealing and perennially popular colonial issue, the current example of which retains unblemished and attractive surfaces decorated in a subtle yet clearly present honeyed amber tone. The central detailing is soundly struck considering the typical "flatness" which defines the type, only a mild softness expressed at the bordering edge denticles
