Republic copper Pattern Centieme 1807 MS65 Brown NGC, London mint, KMPn1. Gem Uncirculated and essentially flawless save for a small flan lamination on the center of the reverse. Nevertheless, a truly superb example of this rare pattern, among the very finest seen by the cataloguer and the finest ever offered by us. Commissioned in England, as were the patterns of finer style dated 1808. Interestingly, the denomination reads "UNE CENTIEME (de Gourde)", literally ONE HUNDREDTH (of a Gourde), an alternative and rather curious spelling variant of the more common UN CENTIME yet not an error as often stated in previous references of this rare issue. Highly desirable in this quality.
Estimate: 3000-4000 USD
