Description

Key Date Prooflike Genie 100 Francs

Republic gold 100 Francs 1894-A MS64 Prooflike NGC, Paris mint, KM832, Gad-1137, Fr-590. The rarest of all business-strikes from the coveted Genie series with a miniscule mintage of 143 examples, of which only five have been awarded a Prooflike superlative across grading services, including the piece at hand. This specimen's fields are lavishly adorned with die polish lines, producing a courageous reflectivity in the expanses that amplifies the rosy tone of the flan. All this underscores the exemplary execution of the devices, the angel motif enjoying near-uninterrupted clarity from head to toe. An item indubitably set for inclusion in an elite assemblage of premier French gold, with a coveted gold "Wings" designation to boot.
