An extremely rare coin and highly sought after for the very best of numismatic collections, a rare opportunity to own this piece with no other examples available anywhere on the planet. One of the few ‘holy grail’ pieces in the world of numismatics.Condition is very good, some contact marks present around the rim, with some scratches and wear to each sides, still a good grade with good sharp detail and original lustre. Due to the high value of this coin, postage overseas is not available, uk shipping only with full insurance, I would deliver personally within 100 miles, or meet half way if further out. Any questions or queries please get in touch.
