ALBANIA. Lek, 1931-L. London Mint. Zog I. PCGS PROOF-66 Cameo.
KM-5. RARE in proof format, the special strike quality of this piece elevates the overall eye appeal of the design to new heights. Boomingly mirrored fields provide stark contrast for the lightly frosted devices, generating a cameo pop that is seldom encountered on nickel issues. Only the faintest touches of fog are seen, with this Lek otherwise displaying no evidence of handling, friction, or mark. A piece that is stunning to hold in hand when presenting in proof.
From the Star City Homer Collection.
Estimate: $1200 - $1800
