Lot 1132
Lot 31132 > Republic gold "Veld" Pond 1902 AU58 NGC, Pilgrims Rest mint, KM11, Fr-4, Hern-Z54. A highly historical issue struck during the Second Boer War by Boer forces on the run from the British, set up in the veld (long grass) of Pilgrims Rest in northeastern Transvaal. With only 986 examples minted in this turbulent period, and due to the eventful context of this period in South African history, the "Veld" Pond remains one of the most numismatically important issues of the country. Gently toned with soft touches of amber, mint luster evident throughout, and nearly absent any wear, this offering represents a highly desirable selection of the type, one worthy of close inspection and consideration.
