Watch List notes:

Venezuela. (Kienast-398). (Bruce-Pn6). 38,74 g. Gold Pattern 5 Bolivares. 1930. A privately minted issue, designed by famous German medalist Karl Goetz, and likely struck later (since all observed examples show some die rust within the reverse arms) using the dies. Scarcely seen, the issue features the uniformed bust of Vicente Gomez, a miliary general and the ruler of Venezuela from 1908 until his passing in 1935. AU. Est...2500,00.

Spanish Description: Venezuela. (Kienast-398). (Bruce-Pn6). 38,74 g. Pattern 5 bolivares. 1930. Au. A private issue, designed by the famous German medallist Karl Goetz, and probably minted later using the dies (as all specimens observed show some rust on the reverse and this one is no exception).

This issue, rarely offered at auction, features the uniformed bust of Vicente Gómez, general of the militia and ruler of Venezuela from 1908 until his death in 1935.

There are two types of these essays: the first type was official; and the second type, to which this piece belongs, is probably a second die made by the same Karl Goetz, whose difference with the first type is the omission of the star between GRAM 25 and LEY 900.
There are also some reacquaintances of the two types. EBC+. Est...2500,00.
