AUSTRIA. Salzburg. Klippe 2 Ducats, 1648. Archbishop Paris von Lodron (1619-53). NGC AU-55.
Fr-755; Probszt-1096; KM-93 (incorrect image in SCWC). Arms of Archbishop as Apostolic Legate; Reverse: Salzburg patron Saint Rupert seated holding crosier and reliquary. A captivating circular stamp on a square (26x26mm) flan, recalling the glory days of this Archbishopric, whose occupant was often Apostolic Delegate to Germany. A delightfully sharp impression of impressive beauty, this piece is brightly toned with orange and reddish flashes and luminous fields that hold few marks of note. RARE, especially without significant forms of damage. NGC AU-55.
Estimate: $5000.00- $7000.00
