Mainz - Archbishopric. Johann Philipp gold Ducat 1653 AU Details (Surface Hairlines), KM107, Fr-1656. A lovely example of this seldom-offered type, with attractive antiqued patina and a noticeably straight flan. Moments of rim irregularity, as well as faint surface hairlines account for the details designation. Even so, this is a lovely example with several layers of interest, and one that should not be overlooked. Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $625 in VF, $1250 in EF.
Estimate: 1250-1500 USD
