George I copper-nickel Double Reverse Pattern Drachma ND (1868) AU53 NGC, KM-Pn21, Divo-Unl. An extremely rare pattern presumably from a minutely small mintage figure, with Divo noting the similar 2 Drachmai double reverse pattern being known to him from only 3 specimens, and the majority of the other patterns recorded in his book for George I existing in numbers of just 2 to 3. Struck with clear die striations, resulting in a peculiar texture to the surfaces that is quite intriguing. We could locate only one other example of the type appearing at auction, an UNC Details specimen which achieved in access of $3000 in Stack's Bowers's August 2015 ANA Sale (lot 1098). From the Engelen Collection of World Coinage
