Alexander I silver Pattern 2 Dinara 1892 AU Details (Rim Repair) NGC, KM-Pn13, Mandić-R13, Viščević-S25 (R). By Jean Lagrange. Never before have we encountered this Pattern, or any in this series for that matter, of which a full set is on offer here. An enigmatic and mysterious issue to say the least, with no results located when consulting notable auctions in recent decades, nor are seemingly any sales appearances recorded by Viščević, who simply assigns it the highest rarity and leaves it unpriced. Depicting a young Alexander I who was proclaimed king following the abdication of his father, King Milan, in 1889, and wouldn't ascend to power until the next year at age 16. Very little is known about this Pattern issue outside of the fact that they are an unaccepted trial of which few exist and, regardless of the noted rim repair, will be of substantial interest to Serbian collectors.
