Curiosity - inscription variety with the king's titulature ending in ... PP (damage to the punch of the letter R).
State of preservation: NGC MS62
for this type a superbly struck and preserved piece.Beautiful detail. Gloss and mint mirror all over the surface. Mint condition confirmed by a very high NGC grade. Curiosity - the titulature ended with PP. In such a state of preservation, the coin is rare and difficult to find on the collector's market. A beautiful piece for discerning collectors.
