Switzerland
Zurich. City gold Ducat 1745 MS67+ NGC, KM140, Fr-486a, HMZ-21161cc. An immaculate survivor of this 18th century ducat, preserved in near-pristine quality throughout, with vivid mint bloom that sparkles intensely over the surfaces and a strike that has been fully imparted, leaving no areas of the intended design incomplete. Perhaps most impressive however is the absence of marks or handling of any form, this quality prompting repeated viewing of the surfaces. Without question, the finest quality Swiss ducat that we have ever seen, and considering its finest graded status at NGC (for all dates!), a coin that should generate significant excitement among collectors that seek the absolute finest.
