Leopold I gold Specimen "Royal Wedding" 100 Francs 1853 SP63 NGC, Brussels mint, KM-XM3.1, Fr-409, Dupriez-529 (R3). Hyphen between dates variety. Mintage: 482. Struck to commemorate the marriage of the Duke and Duchess of Brabant. Produced to pinpoint precision, with an astounding degree of flashy brilliance embracing bold features graced with golden mint frost. Only minor handling wisps are noted to the fields, aside from a single short mark to the immediate right of Leopold's bust. Rarely is this low-mintage type seen so well-preserved, and its "SP63" grade designation places it firmly in a tied position for the finest Specimen-graded issue yet seen by NGC.
