Brandenburg-Ansbach. Alexander Taler 1779-G MS65 NGC, KM315, Dav-2019. Immaculate quality for the issue, fully struck and almost entirely free of marks, with glass-like reflectivity in the fields and an enchanting mixture of intermingled gold and blue patination that sits evenly over both sides. Worthy of a strong premium over even nice examples of the type, as this piece (as the NGC population of 1 and none higher suggestion) may be without equal. Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $400 in VF, $800 in EF, $1350 in UNC.
Estimate: 3000-3500 USD
