Republic gold 20 Pesos 1896/9 GO-R MS66+ NGC, Guanajuato mint, KM414.4. A "wonder coin" from the Second Republic, boasting a seemingly impossible state of preservation for an already elusive overdate. Hypnotizing luster is met by a looming frost at the peripheries, an encounter that imbues the piece with unintended but ever-so inspiring Cameo quality. The iconic devices are rendered with a clarity that this cataloger has not had to confront prior, confirming the piece's superior manufacture. This offering stands as the sole finest across NGC and PCGS not just of the date but of the entire 20 Pesos series, a truly rare numismatic opportunity set to command ardent bidding activity.
Ex. Heritage Auction #3101 (August 2022, Lot 35999); Eliasberg Collection (American Numismatic Rarities April 2005, Lot 3402); John H. Clapp Estate to Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr.,1942
