Venice. Francesco Loredan Ducato ND (1751-52)-GAC MS63 NGC, KM611, Dav-1551. For a type that is seldom encountered in levels of Mint State, this exquisite offering which depicts a seated St. Mark presenting a flagged staff to a kneeling doge absolutely inspires. The eye is almost immediately drawn to the fully-bold and illustrative design motifs on this specimen, with shimmering champange-tinged luster that highlights their crispness and surrounding surfaces that are essentially free of any notable marks. An absolutely well-preserved specimen, scarce in this impressive quality.
Estimate: 1250-1750 USD
