GERMAN NEW GUINEA. 10 Mark, 1895-A. Berlin Mint. Wilhelm II. PCGS PROOF-64 Cameo.
Fr-2; KM-8; J-708. Mintage: 2,000 (across proof and business strikes combined). A VERY RARE and enticing example owing to its already paltry mintage figure, this type is made that much more desirable on account of the proofs accounting for only a portion of the listed mintage. As such, a tremendous opportunity for a dizzying near-Gem, the quality of which is not likely to be easily encountered again anytime soon. Displaying the bird of paradise on its obverse, this type is ever a collector favorite--an aspect that should allow this avian type to soar to majestic heights.
Estimate: $30000 - $45000
