SWITZERLAND. 5 Francs, 1851-A. Paris Mint. PCGS MS-65 Gold Shield. KM-11. Second year of issue from this popular series. A sharply struck example with nice cartwheel luster and smooth satiny surfaces displaying attractive mottled smokey grey to slate tone accentuated with iridescent hues on the obverse. The reverse exhibits lovely iridescent blue-green tone in the peripherals with russet amongst the central devices. A very attractive survivor of the type with good eye appeal destine for a fine cabinet.
