Description

Scarce Straight-Graded 1893 1/2 Pond

Republic gold 1/2 Pond 1893 XF40 NGC, Pretoria mint, KM9.2, Hern-Z39. A coin distinguished by marked rarity, especially in elevated grades. Most specimens that surface in the marketplace have experienced life as jewelry, survived significant damage or both. Stumbling upon a selection in an XF40 grade is decidedly uncommon. Deep, original gold hues adorn its surface, revealing only mild, superficial wear on the most prominent design elements. Always contested when encountered problem-free, and we expect keen attention from discerning collectors.
