Dav-1664; KM-169; Bit-88. Possessing immense eye appeal and majestic, radiant beauty, this wholly enchanting and fully Choice example presents a level of quality that is RARELY if ever encountered for the type. The strike is superb and the luster glistening, with the overall surface nature being quite impressive as well. Not surprisingly, the finer by far of just two seen at PCGS for the type.
From the Sigma Collection.
Estimate: $4000 - $8000
