Republic silver Specimen Essai 80 Centavos Fuertes 1879 SP65 PCGS, Brussels mint, KM-XE5, Guttag-Unl., Janson-26.1. By C. Wurden. A sublime silver Pattern, ringed in gold at the peripheries and embellished by a beautiful glassy luster that radiates throughout the surfaces. Silvery patina in the fields yields to a profound iridescence at a slight tilt of the wrist, while orange-gold hues provide a pleasing framing effect. A delightful gem, free of any notable instances of handling, and a true prize for the collector who values meticulous preservation and rarity above all else.
