Republic Proof "Star" Peso 1915 PR65 PCGS, Philadelphia mint, KM15.1, Elizondo-5. Produced in a low mintage of only 100 examples, this commendable Proof ranks among the very finest of this small figure by virtue of its captivating gem condition. A fine veil of metallic patination overlies highly mirrored surfaces, a tilt of the wrist unveiling gentle lime and blue-green iridescence that propels the visual allure to lofty heights. We note that this same example last hammered for $18,000 in our 2012 Long Beach Signature Auction #2020 (Lot 23669)-- a clear testament to its exceptional quality and in-hand appeal. Ex. Heritage Auction #3020 (September 2002, Lot 23669)
