Switzerland
Confederation "Lugano Shooting Festival" 5 Francs 1883 MS66 PCGS, KM-XS16, Richter-1373. Mintage: 30,000. A usually rather common coin even in up to gem quality, where the population of certified specimens sharply drops off--only 15 pieces have been awarded an MS66 grade across both major grading services, with a combined 6 pieces ranking finer, and this out of over 380 certified. Furthermore housed in an old green label holder, known for conservative grading, and with an impressive toning palette to boot.
