Peru: , Republic 5 Pesetas 1882 M-LM MS64 PCGS,...
Republic 5 Pesetas 1882 M-LM MS64 PCGS, Ayacucho mint, KM201.3, WR-23, Elizondo-237. Of clearly superior quality for this type, which is rarely located in problem-free Mint State condition, and even more rarely so fine. The commonplace surface texturing and characteristic die cracks are displayed in the strike, though here with only a minimum of handling and no true distractions to deter the eye as it moves across the satiny fields, tinged in pale gold accents. The offering is tied for the finest that has yet been encountered by the grading services--a testament to its standout technical preservation.
