Description: Extremely Rare silver crown with exceptional engraving, high relief portrait, steel-grey tone and much underlying lustre. Desirable for all crown size collectors! Graded by NGC AU58. Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu was President of the Republic of Biafra during its brief independence between 1967-1970 and a controversial figure to this day. A portion of Eastern Nigeria is home largely to members of the Ibo tribe. This area seceded from Nigeria in 1967 as the Republic of Biafra and a war broke-out with the federal government of Nigeria that lasted for almost three years and claimed over 2,000,000 lives. Biafra surrendered to the Nigerian government on January 15 1970, thus ending the brief and bloody war. Extremely Rare issue with fewer than 8 examples sold in the last decade and only 10 graded with both companies NGC & PCGS. Great opportunity to own this magnificent crown!
