LEBANON. 1/2 Piastre, 1934. Paris Mint. PCGS MS-63.KM-9; Lec-4. A very sharply struck and delicately lustrous example that displays an even steely gray patina. Very few examples have survived in Mint State, with the Essai of this denomination outnumbering the circulation strikes that PCGS has graded Mint State. A wonderful addition to any collection of French colonial or Middle Eastern issues.
