France
Napoleon III gold 100 Francs 1862-BB MS63 NGC, Strasbourg mint, KM802.2, Gad-1136. A scarce first-year issue of this Strasbourg type, with a mintage of only 3,078 pieces. Outstanding and sublime in every respect, from the needle-point accuracy of the strike to the flashy, champagne-gold fields that are practically devoid of any material instances of contact. A visual delight with an enviable pedigree, and one that deserves serious consideration.
Ex. Paramount Collection (Heritage Auction #3096, March 2021, Lot 30188) From the KJR Collection
