Republic gold 100 Francs 1896-A MS62 PCGS, Paris mint, KM832, Gad-1137, F-552. An exceptionally rare 100 Francs issue with a minuscule mintage of just 400 pieces. The strike is virtually flawless and the minor marks noted on the fields do little to detract from its overall allure. The glistening surfaces greatly enhance its visual appeal, elevating the coin's presence beyond what one might expect for the assigned grade.
