Switzerland
Confederation "Solothurn Shooting Festival" 5 Francs 1855 MS64 PCGS, Bern mint, KM-XS3, HMZ-2-1343a, Richter-1117a. Struck in a mintage of only 3,000 pieces, and one of the more popular types in the broader Shooting Festival series, this captivating near-gem example necessarily impresses by virtue of its rich cabinet tone, bearing elements of crimson and iridescent gold and blue over watery, lustrous surfaces. With only light hairlines in the fields limiting the assigned grade, this laudable example of the type can be expected to draw nothing less than full collector attention.
