2019 Silver Proof 2 Rand (Crown) POLYMER PUTTY / MOON LANDING * NGC PF70UC FIRST RELEASES *

A Silver Proof 2 Rand or Crown dated 2019 for Polymer Putty and Commemorating the 50th Anniversary of Man’s First Landing on the Moon. Graded PF70 ULTRA CAMEO / FIRST RELEASES by NGC. Comes in a pristine “Blue Label” holder with label number 2836936-006.

This coin came in a presentation case together with the Silver Proof Krugerrand (spacecraft privy mark) with a mintage limited to 500.

A “Blue Label FIRST RELEASES” holder means that the coin was graded within a limited time window of 30 days after the coin was issued by the SA Mint. To receive this designation NGC charges an additional $10.

The pedigree awarded on the first line of the label: “Silver Krugerrand 2R Set” means that this coin was received by NGC in the original 2-coin presentation case for the set exactly as issued by the SA Mint. This pedigree is valued by American collectors. It is rarely seen here because the set weighs over 500 gm; so shipping costs are onerous. It is also risky as the person submitting the coin does so blindfolded because he is prohibited from opening the case to assess for himself the quality of the coin.
