Switzerland
Confederation "Neuchatel Shooting Festival" 5 Francs 1863 MS64 PCGS, KM-XS7, Richter-944a. Mintage: 6,000. Among the scarcer of the Swiss shooting 5 Francs, with the majority of survivors hardly possessing this coin's level of eye appeal--an almost Prooflike shimmer to the fields complemented by delicate champagne undertones. Very nearly pressing the upper bounds of the designation, and easily more attractive than most pieces that rank a point or two finer.
