ANNAM. 6 Tien, ND (1848-83). Tu Duc. NGC MS-64. KM-465; Sch-382; Thierry-Unlisted; Thierry Supplement-Unlisted; Dav-140. Edge: Reeded. Obverse: "Luc Thinh Bat Tien", sun in center, parts of dragon around; Reverse: "Tu Duc Thong Bao" around central sun. Only the second example we can recall offering of this EXTREMELY RARE and desirable type that features the inscription "Luc Thinh Bat Tien", meaning "He who possesses the virtue of obedience is worthy of obtaining this coin, the weight of which is 6 Tien". Wonderfully ornate and well-detailed, with bright silvery-white surfaces and mild earthy toning about the peripheries. One of only two examples of the type in the combined population reports of NGC and PCGS, and a RARITY as an example of any 6 Tien, this being the only type with this denomination issued under the reign of Tu Duc. Estimate: $30,000 - $50,000. Click here for certification details from NGC.
