Minor local scarcities, but a beautifully preserved coin. Plastic relief. Beautiful detail. Mint gloss and mirror. Coin interesting typologically. A rare, valued and sought after denomination. In such a state of preservation, the coin is quite rare and difficult to obtain on the collector's market. A piece for discerning collectors.
