Confederation Klippe Essai 5 Francs 1855 MS63 NGC, cf. KM-XE5 (Klippe), Richter-2-48 (R4). By Marc Bovy. An extremely elusive Klippe Essai estimated by Richter to be one of 2-5 pieces struck, with only one other example sold in recent memory. Doubtlessly tucked away for some time, this choice specimen boasts an even cabinet patina and teal silhouettes that border the bold devices. A truly tempting acquisition for the collector of Swiss rarities.
