Vaud. Canton 40 Batzen (Taler) 1812 MS64 NGC, KM17, Dav-362, HMZ-2997a. Mintage: 2,485. A splendid one-year type that depicts a halberdier with notably bold design images that sit in raised fashion compared to the surrounding fields. The large flan is full of iridescent magenta, champagne, and cerulean hues which delicately mottle the surfaces, while choice luster shines through the breaks in tone. Very much a desired issue, particular at this level of certification, and visually engaging to boot.
Estimate: 1400-1800 USD
