Owner's Description

Republic gold 5 Pesos 1869-GW MS 63 NGC, San Jose mint, KM 114. Choice Mint state with mild surface abrasions expected for the designation. Currently tied with another example as the finest certified of the entire type by NGC. Breathtakingly presented with full prooflike mirrors in the fields and soft contrast to the frosted devices. Boldly defined throughout with visible die clash marks and numerous die cracks that add to the eye appeal. A truly exceptional specimen and very rare in this condition. Ex-Mayer Collection coin (Spink Smythe 10/2008, lot 1213).
