Holy Grail Date Gem 100 Soles

Republic gold 100 Soles 1958 MS65 NGC, Lima mint, KM231, Fr-78. Mintage: 101. A holy grail date and the single-largest impediment to completing the series. A total of eight pieces have been certified by NGC, which stands in stark contrast to other dates that have over a hundred registered examples. In addition to the rarity of this offering is its exceptional eye appeal and state of preservation. A lustrous sheen glosses over the entire specimen, yet without the ostentation that can sometimes appear artificial. The impeccable strike is softened by the silky surfaces that have survived unblemished. This jewel shares the top spot in the census and is unlikely to be bested anytime soon.
