SWITZERLAND. Zurich Shooting Festival 5 Francs, 1859. Bern Mint. NGC MS-64.

KMX-S5; R-1723; HMZ-2-1343c. Mintage: 6,000. This attractive near-Gem was struck to commemorate the shooting festival in Zurich, and displays a handsome soft luster that cartwheels light delicately. Nearly fully white, this example renders a wholesome appearance, with perhaps the slightest evidence of friction withholding a higher grade. 

Estimate: $300.00 - $500.00
