France
Napoleon III gold 20 Francs 1865-A MS66+ NGC, Paris mint, KM801.1. The single-highest graded specimen by NGC for the type. To reach the heights of a premium-gem level grade is already an impressive feat, but to gain the further 'plus' designation truly renders this coin an elite specimen. It fully deserves it, too. Its surfaces are truly pristine, imbued with a decadent silky luster backlighting the immensely crisp portrait of Napoleon III, its color a gorgeous honey-gold. An altogether outstanding example from this ever-popular series.
