VENEZUELA. Silver Venezolano Essai (Pattern), 1874. Paris Mint. PCGS PROOF-62.
KM-E16; Stohr-E26. Reeded Edge Variety. A beautiful and EXCEEDINGLY RARE pattern, this piece offers the perfect complement to the plain edge variety of this type that is also offered during this session. This wonderful pattern yields a vibrant strike and full details on the steely gray surfaces. Reserved luster is retained and no obtrusive marks or knocking is seen. Some light friction accounts for the grade assigned, though this is not ungainly in appearance. A tremendous example that is certain to appeal to anyone seeking to add a premium Venezuelan RARITY to their numismatic cabinet.
