Menelik II bronze Uniface Trial Birr EE1890 (1898), KM19var., Gill-M6var., AU. 28.8 gm. Plain edge. A handsome specimen with delicate highpoint friction and limited evidence of contact. Essentially identical in type to Gill-M6, but with a different surface finish (not matte proof) and without a "Bronze" stamp on the reverse. Unquestionably very rare.
Estimate: 1500-2000 USD
