Item 218289 |
 |
BIAFRA: AR crown, 1969. KM-5. 38mm, bust of Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, chief of staff during Biafra's brief independence 1967-1970 / coconut palm tree, NGC graded AU58, RRR.
Estimated Value$5,000 - 7,000.
Little is known about this seldom encountered commemorative, probably intended for two years of independence, and inscribed "independence and liberty". No specimen has appeared at auction or for sale in recent years, to the best of our recollection. It is listed as "rare" by Krause, valued €1000 by Schon (Welt Münzkatalog, 20. Jahrhundert, 2008 edition). It has been suggested that it was produced by an Italian operation known as Istituto Numismatico Europeo, but there is no evidence to confirm this assumption. Uncertain letters, perhaps N.C.R., beneath the trunk of the palm tree and letter C at base of palm may reflect mint and designers initials. In any case, the style & arrangement are totally different from any of the other issues struck for Biafra during its ephemeral existence. A similar coin sold in Stephen Album Rare Coins Auction 18, Lot 2185 for $13,000. One the rarest of modern crown coins.

EGYPT: Hussein Kamil, 1914-1917, AR 10 qirsh, 1917/AH1335. KM-319. With designer's initials HR on the knot of the obverse bow, struck at the British Royal Mint, London, very rare original proof striking, NGC graded Proof 63, RRR.
Estimated Value$5,000 - 7,000.
This is the only London mint proof Occupation 10 qirsh (piastres) seen in any grade by PCGS and NGC, is almost certainly a Royal Mint Proof of Record. No other examples whatsoever have appeared in searchable commercial channels in recent times, and thus it is at least extremely rare, possibly unique, and this may be the only chance to purchase such a coin for a long time. It is far rarer than the 1937 Farouk silver proof issues, and remains considerably scarcer the the rare 1923 and very rare 1933 Fuad London proofs, which, though they do turn up from time to time, nonetheless currently command very strong prices.

The Italians tried to expand their territory between the treaty signing and ratification by engaging the Ethiopians in the Battle of Adwa in 1896. The Ethiopians were able to defeat the Italians.
