I have been trying to find a proof or mint set from the Dominican Republic for some time. It seems they never come up or are too expensive. I was able to pick this 2 piece set up last week and it arrive tonight. I am excited. All are low mintage from a low of 15 to a high of 5000. This one is 500!!! It contains the 10 Centavos and the 1/2 Peso. Both are beautiful specimens.

1973 Dominican Republic Proof Set Mintage 500

 

Pop 1/0 finer at PCGS with none seen at NGC at this level or higher. In other words, the finest graded example on the planet. First year of issue and a better date. A coin that has it all..,, Very hard to photograph however. Has a super looking blue sheen to the tone that sends light dancing off the surfaces.

 

Beautiful coin!

I once won a Mexican copper 20 C. from a LordM giveaway that really popped-it had that blue sheen you mentioned-really attractive.

 

Just won this Sunday 29th of January. Can't wait to have this in my hands! Also, I would like anyone who is into Mexican Numismatics, and anything else South of the Border, please join my Group, Mexican Numismatics - Coins, Medals, Rounds...Facebook. Buyers and Sellers from both sides.

 

Way nice set.

 

Ive got one of those. Its such a lovely coin and the condition is great.

 

Yeah, I think so too. It looks like it has a lot of luster and I love the slight toning around the edges.

 

My latest silver world coin grab. I added the penny for size reference.

 

Just won this 1989 (500th Anniversary of the Sovereign issue) Tudor Rose quintuple sovereign (5 sovereigns - 40 grams). Have been after one for a while now.

Gorgeous coin, have not seen this one before.

 

Woah, is that a gold coin? It looks incredible.

 

And yet another 1859 Ansell sovereign, bringing my tally to three. Less than a total of 50 known examples.

The second row of the headband is quite clearly visible.
