Item Description:Up for auction / sale is an incredible 1904 Hesse-Darmstadt 2 Mark (400th Anniversary of Philip the Magnanimous).The NGC Slab: The coin is officially certified by NGC as MS63.The Reality (The Ultimate Cherrypick): NGC completely missed the designation on this one. This piece was struck with the official matte obverse and proof reverse as minted for the PP (Proof) issue. Furthermore, it boasts highly reflective Prooflike (PL) details in the fields and features an absolutely jaw-dropping, vibrant Monster Rainbow Toning.The original mint oil residue combined with the heavy patina likely caused the US graders to quickly label it as Mint State (MS) instead of Proof (PF).Important: You are buying the exact coin pictured in the NGC holder. The eye appeal is off the charts and significantly exceeds the standard MS63 grade. Please look at the photos/video closely to appreciate the true colors and proof characteristics.
Thank you…
