FD533
French Dinky 533 Mercedes-Benz Coupe 300 SE. Very, very near mint/boxed. From the 1200 model Italian collection.
Notes
This fine French Dinky car was issued between 1963-70 in various colour finishes, this being probably the most attractive in a distinctive metallic mid-blue, detailed ivory interior, plated concave wheels. Intact bonnet emblem and none of the expected rubs to the silver detailing at bumpers and radiator. None of the usual tarnishing to the wheels either. Presents well:
Tempted to call this Mercedes mint – there is just one small mark at a door handle.
The colourful pictorial card outer box is clean, bright and complete with all end flaps intact. Small rubbed area on one surface, otherwise difficult to fault. Really crisp!
