Ferdinand I gold 100 Leva 1894-KB MS60 Prooflike NGC, Kremnitz mint, KM21, Fr-2. Mintage: 2,500. An almost universally lower-grade type, prone to frequent contact and bagmarks across its broad, soft golden surfaces. Though such marking bounds the designation of the present specimen, its technical preservation stands far above the majority of survivors--the highest grade at NGC being a mere point finer, with only 4 pieces certified with a Prooflike finish. The characteristics seen here are indeed strikingly reminiscent of a fully Proof issue, the fields flashy and fully mirrored, set against an on the whole delicate frost overlying the devices, which strengthens particularly on the reverse arms.
