Description from the seller
MALDIVES. 5 Laari. 1960.
- Value: 5 Laari.
- Year: 1960.
- Inscriptions: Obverse: Arabic inscription with the value 5 in central numerals and the denomination لاري. Reverse: palm tree over crescent and star flanked by two flags, with dual dating 1960 and ١٣٧٩.
- Grade: MS62 (NGC).
Brass coin with the characteristic beaded edge, issued after the proclamation of the Republic of the Maldives. The obverse shows the face value in large size, accompanied by elegant Arabic calligraphy with a fluid stroke, with well-defined relief and broad fields. The reverse presents a symbolic set consisting of palm tree, crescent and star, flanked by national flags, in a sober and balanced style, beside the double dating of Islamic and Gregorian calendars. Uncirculated specimen, with visible original luster, light uniform golden patina, and scant contact marks typical of minting, offering a very attractive and well-preserved presentation.
Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside EU that has special tax agreement (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 it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
