LEBANON. 50 Piastres, 1933. Paris Mint. PCGS MS-65 Gold Shield.
KM-8; Lec-42. Intensely lustrous, silver white surfaces are very subtly toned on both sides, with a band of rich orange toning around much of the reverse periphery. This is not only the finest example of the key date within the early 50 Piastres series, it is also the only piece graded Mint State by either PCGS or NGC and is incredibly choice for the grade. Here is a coin for the Registry Set minded collector seeking only the finest in Lebanese or French Colonial issues.
The Cedars Collection of Lebanese Coinage, 1924-1961.
Estimate: $3000 - $5000
