Franz Joseph I gold 4 Ducat 1879 MS61 Prooflike NGC, Vienna mint, KM2276, Fr-487. Boldly struck, with deeply reflective fields that contrast nicely against the frosted devices. The open mirrors are filled with light wisps that ultimately limit the grade, but upon rotation, fold nicely into the surrounding gloss. A solid, earlier date from this popular series, and one that remains highly coveted when found in a Prooflike quality.
