<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collect89, post: 962763, member: 15445&quot;]Other than magician coins, this is my first one-sided coin.&nbsp; It is apparently a 2-Mark pattern with a design that was not adopted for business strikes in Germany.&nbsp; It is dated 1876.&nbsp; The experts at NGC have identified it as “Scaaf-2M/G3 Silver Trial” and graded it PF66 Cameo.</p><p><br /></p><p>OK, for a cameo designation both sides of the coin must exhibit the cameo but I suspect that rule can be waived on a one-sided coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>I knew nothing about the coin when I first saw it 1-month ago.&nbsp; I saw it again yesterday &amp; realized that I still knew nothing about the coin.&nbsp; It was now in a new NGC holder and I bought it (before anyone else saw it).&nbsp; I just located one for sale on the Internet this morning for about 7x what I paid.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope that you enjoy this one as much as I do.&nbsp; I’d like to learn more about this trial piece so please post any information you might have.&nbsp; Thanks for letting me share.</p><p><br /></p><p>Very best regards,</p><p>collect89[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
