South Africa: Republic gold 1/2 Pond 1893 XF Details (Cleaned) NGC,...

Description

Republic gold 1/2 Pond 1893 XF Details (Cleaned) NGC, Pretoria mint, KM9.2, Hern-Z39. A notable rarity in the Zuid Afrikaansche Republiek 1/2 Pound series, and covetable whenever presented to market in anything approaching a meaningful condition. The fields carry a somewhat muted appearance perhaps owing to long-time past cleaning and admit balanced friction to high-points, nonetheless an undeniably appreciable example of one of the most elusive ZAR types.
