Republic 1/16 Peso 1850-JB MS65 NGC, San Jose mint, KM101. A wonderful example of this popular issue, Gem Mint State with essentially flawless strike, very lustrous surfaces and lightly toned with great eye-appeal. Obviously superior to the recently auctioned very choice ex-Lissner example that was described as "Highest ever graded for the date and none higher for the type." Probably unimprovable for the type, with a legendary pedigree to boot. Ex Norweb/Mayer collections.
Estimate: 2000-2500 USD
