Switzerland
Confederation Specimen Essai Franc 1851-A SP62 PCGS, Paris mint, Maz-1379 (R2). One of incredibly few this cataloger has been able to locate from a series including numerous iterations of Franc Patterns. On offer is a striking near-Choice representative awash in mint brilliance most notable to the outer legends and perfectly framing the iconic bust of Ceres. Heritage has only handled one other of this type and expects interest commensurate with the growing demand for scarce French Patterns.
