Only 10 Minted!

 

The newest rare coin to join the Belgian Congo family is a 1970 1 Zaire Silver Piefort-Essai, which is 4.75 mm thick. The coin is thick enough to warrant a custom slab from NGC, which is quite notably larger than their normal slabs. It is graded NGC PF65CAM. It is one of only 10 minted and the only one graded by any grading company to date.

Cool, one of 10 minted. That is rarer than a 1933 Double Eagle.

Nothing better than finding the tough ones. It's funny how some that don't seem to appear to be rare are so freaking hard to find!
