GERMANY. Bamberg. Ducat, 1753. Bishop Franz Conrad von Stadiun-Thannhausen (1753-57). NGC MS-62 PL.
Fr-171; KM-119. Homage of the Bishopric. Bust left in clerical garb; Reverse: Seven-fold Arms under five crests, Chronogram date forms part of the legend: "Astrae Longos ConCeDat RegIMInIs Annos:" (May the Stars Allow Long Years [of Reign]). Impressive quality for the RARE Ducat, showcasing bold reflective characteristics in the fields and impressively precise detail within the bust and fancy reverse arms. Slight handling accounts for the grade, but no individual instance stands out, and overall it does little to diminish the wondrous appeal. NGC MS-62 PL.
Estimate: $4000.00- $6000.00
