Description from the seller

MALDIVES. 2 Laari. 1960.

- Value: 2 Laari.
Year: 1960.
- Inscriptions: Obverse: legend in Arabic with the value 2 in the central numeral and the denomination lari. Reverse: palm tree over crescent and star flanked by two flags, with double dating 1960 and ١٣٧٩.
- Grade: MS62 (NGC).

Coin with a square outline of cut corners, belonging to the first republican minting series of the Maldives. The obverse features the face value prominently in large size, accompanied by Arabic calligraphy in a fluid and well-proportioned style, with clear relief and uniform fields. The reverse shows a symbolic ensemble with a strong national charge, with a central palm tree over a crescent and star, flanked by flags, all executed with a good level of detail and compositional balance. Specimen in uncirculated condition, with a homogeneous brown patina, visible residual gloss, and light contact marks typical of the minting process, preserving a solid and attractive appearance.

Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to make it absolutely clear that I ship from Spain. This means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside the EU that has a special tax agreement (for example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs, and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and is completely out of our control. Thank you for your understanding.
