Carol I gold 50 Lei 1906-(b) MS61 PCGS, Brussels mint, KM39, Schäffer/Stambuliu-66. Mintage 28,000. Commemorating the 40th Anniversary of Carol's reign. One of the more distinct designs in all of Romanian numismatics, with Carol's angular bust draped in an almost parodic mixture of military honors. Though the grade is limited by the presence of hairlines, there is an appealing lemon-gold burst to the surfaces that contributes to the piece's advanced visual allure. From the Carpathian Collection of Romanian Coins HID09801242017 © 2024 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
