Deventer. Siege Uniface Klippe Taler of 44 Stuivers 1578 AU58 NGC, Delm-213, Mailliet-pl XXXVI #5. A very rare emission, struck by Count Georg von Lalaing of Regensberg during the siege in Deventer that began on August 3, 1578 and ended when Spain handed the city over on November 19th of that year. This example, technically rather choice for the issue, is attractively toned on the metal around the uniface stamp, with the stamp itself being rather boldly impressed and showing little wear. A long planchet crack, an unfortunate but understandable artifact of its crude manufacture, is seen running through the flan to the southeast edge of the stamp. One of very few examples that we've seen offered in recent years.
