Description
Proof Pattern Bolivar 10 Centavos in Silver
Rarely, if Ever Seen on the Market
Republic silver Proof Essai 10 Centavos 1873 PR61 NGC, Paris
mint, KM-E12. Reeded edge. A dazzling little jewel that has an
overall pleasing appearance throughout, despite being graded at a
level that often suggests major eye-appeal issues. As is typical of
coins that have seen long-time cabinet placement, the patina on
each side carries its own unique character; on the obverse, the
tone is largely graphite-like, while rich multicolored hues adorn
the reverse. Underlying field reflectivity remains evident on both
sides and only minor ticks, primarily in the field to the left of
Bolivar's bust, limit the grade. An extreme rarity in the
Venezuelan series, and the first offering of its kind that we have
been able to locate.Metal: Silver
