Bern. City gold Duplone 1796 MS64 NGC, KM152, Fr-182. A stunning example of the type with subtle contrast between the reflective fields and the frosted designs. The obverse coat-of-arms shows full fur detail atop the rampant bear and the reverse wreath motif is rendered to the highest point. Trace evidence of handling all but disappears upon rotation, making this near-Gem a candidate for inclusion among a collection of equally choice cantonal gold issues.
Ex. Lawrence Adams Collection
Estimate: 2000-2500 USD
