This 1979 New Hebrides Piefort Gold Franc has been graded PF69 Ultra Cameo by NGC and is encapsulated in the newer-style edge-view holder. This coin is a Piefort, as mentioned on the label, meaning the coin has double the thickness and weight of a normal example. With a mintage of only 123 pieces, this issue is quite scarce no matter what the condition. The coin contains 0.254 ounces of actual gold weight. There are no major marks, hits or issues of note on this finest known top pop example from NGC which has only graded this single coin at the PF69 Ultra Cameo grade. An amazing low mintage gold piefort from New Hebrides, which is now called Vanuatu. |
