Palestine
British Mandate 20 Mils 1934, KM5, MS64 PCGS. Instantly recognizable as a key date to dedicated collector with examples, when offered, rarely breaching the Uncirculated grade, and those that do usually being limited to Select and lesser grades. The present piece however, like many examples for this incredible set, is the anomaly! The surfaces showcase especially effulgent luster throughout and soft unimposing pastel tone in variegated gold, rose and lilac hues traverses the fields. A couple tiny ticks on the reverse are surely all that prevented the full Gem classification. One of only five examples to make the Mint State tier at PCGS and tied with one other coin for the finest known. Ex: Howard Berlin, 2002.From The Mandate Mints! PCGS #1 All - Time Finest Registry Set of Palestine Coins. Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $80 in VF, $180 in EF, $750 in UNC.

Estimate: 4000-6000 USD
