Hamburg. Free City gold Ducat 1658 MS65 NGC, KM221, Fr-1100. A virtually unsurpassable Gem, this specimen displays the beautifully-illustrative Madonna and child motif on both the obverse and reverse. The saffron-colored surfaces are altogether delightful, and upon rotation, an abundance of original bloom sets the design elements ablaze in a golden glow, highlighting their crispness, and illuminating the freshness of the fields. An absolute conditional rarity, highly-coveted in this deluxe quality. Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $550 in VF, $950 in EF.
Estimate: 2200-2600 USD
