NETHERLANDS EAST INDIES. West Friesland. 3 Gulden, 1786. PCGS MS-64 Gold Shield. Dav-1853; KM-140. The finest seen in the PCGS census for the date--<em>the next best being merely an MS-62</em>--this shimmering, near-Gem crown radiates with dazzling eye appeal and brilliance, all while offering a subtle pastel tone in the background and a somewhat darker nature as one approaches the peripheries.
