MUSCAT AND OMAN. 1/12 Anna, AH 1311 (1894). Faisal bin Turki. NGC MS-62 Brown.
KM-1. A VERY RARE and desirable issue that is hardly encountered, especially this attractive, the present piece offers charming brown surfaces and a robustly sharp strike, as well as some hints of brilliance emanating from the protected areas. Undoubtedly, one of the most handsome of the type that one is ever going to have the chance to obtain. There also exists crossover appeal from the collectors of vedutae, or city views, as this presents a view of the city and fort of Muscat on the obverse.
Estimate: $700 - $1000
