Description from the seller

ISLANDS OF THE COMORAS. 2 Francs. 1964.

- Value: 2 Francs.
- Year: 1964.
- Inscriptions: REPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE around the feminine bust with winged headdress and date at the bottom; ARCHIPEL DES COMORES with the value 2 FRANCS on the reverse, accompanied by tropical vegetation.
- Grade: MS66 (NGC).

Issue corresponding to the French colonial period of the Comoros archipelago, with a design coherent with the rest of the 1964 series but in a higher denomination. The obverse shows the allegory of the French Republic, left profile, with excellent definition in the hair, the winged headdress, and facial features, while the reverse presents a detailed tropical scene with palm trees, native plants, and the prominent central value. The specimen retains an intense, uniform original luster, with clean fields and sharp reliefs, supporting its attractive MS66 grade and making it a particularly representative and visually striking piece within modern French-influenced African numismatics.

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.
