ARGENTINA. Araucania & Patagonia (New France). Copper Peso Piefort, 1874. NGC PROOF-63.

Bruce-12; cf.VG-3859. Struck in bronze in medal alignment with a reeded edge. Attractive quality for this elusive fantasy crown, displaying fine granularity within the raised designs and delicate reflectivity in the fields. A mixture of pastel yellow, rose and blue tone appears over both sides and creates a unique appearance for the viewer. RARE with these attributes.
