Nassau. Adolph Proof Taler 1861 PR63 Cameo NGC, Wiesbaden mint, KM78, Dav-989. An engaging issue that was struck to commemorate the Duke's visit to the Wiesbaden Mint-an occasion that did not occur. Upon rotation, the planchet exposes gorgeous peach and cerulean color that flows to the squared-off rims, accented by swirls of graphite tone across both sides, while the central motifs retain a fresh, thick frost, indicative of a cameo finish. Rather minimally handled for the grade and with an estimated mintage of just three pieces that were "test-struck form the dies" as reported by the SCWC, this Choice Proof makes a spectacular representative of the type.
