SPAIN. 5 Pesetas, 1871(71) SD M. Madrid Mint. Amadeo I. NGC MS-63.
KM-666; Cal-Type 256#1031. A premium example of this SCARCE type, it presents ultra-sharp definition over the designs with fields that exhibit a sublime glossiness that borders on prooflike. Classy tone, that on the obverse displays as delicate gray with golden blushes and faint mottling, deepens on the reverse, with the infusion of blue, maroon and orange iridescence. Altogether, a superb example, with only two having been graded finer at NGC.
From the Avrabanel Collection.
Estimate: $1000 - $1500
