Saxony. Friedrich August III gold 10 Taler 1753-G AU58 NGC, Leipzig mint, KM-B19, Fr-2856, Gum-2197. Single-year issue that features the bust of Friedrich August III--Elector of Saxony and King of Poland--with beautiful golden color tinged with hues of rose throughout. Once in hand, the eye is immediately drawn to the centers, which despite negligible wear, strengthen in their resolve towards the outer registers, and the surrounding recesses contain a scattering of micro-abrasions that neither impede the eye nor affect the overall attractiveness of this selection. An incredible amount of original luster nicely rounds out this exceptional offer, aiding in its remarkable state of presentation. At present, this is the only certified example of this type by either grading company, and as such, we expect a great deal of interest in this outstanding representative. Sold with a collector's envelope from long ago.
