Lot description:


Islamic Dynasties
Ottoman Empire. Abdul Hamid II gold 500 Qirsh AH 1293 Year 1 (1876/1877) MS63 NGC, Misr mint (in Egypt), KM286, Fr-89, Pere-973. Marking the inaugural year of Abdul Hamid's 500 Qirsh series, this coin stands out magnificently, boasting a subtle, yet captivating, cartwheel luster that glides effortlessly across its surfaces. The selection is unquestionably within the bounds of its Choice designation, landing firmly in the census as the sole finest. Although the exact production number for this year remains unrecorded, the extremely limited issuance of the Year 6 specimens, documented as five but estimated by UBK to potentially reach thirty, suggests very low production numbers during this time.
