Hannover. Ernst August gold 2-1/2 Taler 1850-B MS64 NGC, KM215, Fr-1178. Most delightful, with readily apparent, satiny surfaces and classic golden color, this small singular gold issue presents fully-rendered design features and minor wisps within the fields. Struck with clashed dies, the reverse shield motif is slightly visible near and on the portrait of Ernst August. Nearly-Gem and highly-collectible as such. Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $300 in VF, $600 in EF, $1000 in UNC.
Estimate: 1000-1200 USD
