Interpunctuation on the obverse in the form of small squares.
Condition: NGC MS63
Brilliantly minted and preserved coin. Beautiful, artistic relief. Impressive detail. Intense luster and mint mirror throughout. Mint condition confirmed by a very high NGC grade. A rare and underrated variety with lilies on the sides of the denomination and a crown richly decorated with floral motifs. A rare and difficult coin to find on the collector's market. A beautiful piece for the best collections.
