Holland. Dutch Revolt (1566/8-1581) gold Counterstamped Ducat 1573-1574 AU55 NGC, cf. PW pg. 22 for background on the revaluation of 1573-1574, host coin: France Ecu d'or of Francois I (Fr-345). A very attractive coin and unusually lightly circulated for a revalued piece, with sharp details evident throughout. The stamp is weakly applied to one side, but the lion is clear. This is an extremely unusual and seemingly excessively rare host coin for this counterstamped issue.
