Madagascar
Ranavalona III silver Proof Pattern 5 Francs 1895 PR63 NGC, London mint, KM-XM4, Dav-69, VG-4243B, Lec-37. Mintage: 25. The first example of this exceptional and very rare Malagasy pattern that we have ever offered, reportedly produced unofficially by Dr. Reginald Huth of London. Exhibiting marked attention to detail in every facet of the design, this specimen appears to very nearly press the upper bounds of its choice grade.
From the Storck Collection
