Naples. Charles V of Spain (1516-1556) gold Ducat ND (after 1520)-G MS62 NGC, Naples mint, Fr-833a, MIR-128/1 (R3). Marcello Gazella as mintmaster. An extremely rare offering, this piece is well-centered and possessed of an even strike overall, the few areas of weakness that exist not being too obtrusive. The flan is typically undersized, but not egregiously so and there is much luster to be found throughout. The slight wave to the flan seems primarily to be an effect of the devices and there is no evidence of any past crimping.
Estimate: 7000-9000 USD
