Dutch Colony. United Amsterdam Company 4 Reals 1601 AU50 NGC, Dordrecht mint, Mintmaster Jacob Janszn de Jonge, KM9, Scholten-2 (RR), Delm-1207, Salv-12. 13.52gm. A wholly original example of this incredibly rare type of which only a handful remains. Uniformly struck, with resulting commendable detail and overall visual appeal, making it very unlikely that any collector would be able to find a meaningfully better specimen. Toned to a deep argent hue, with light hints of gold throughout and a touch of blue iridescence at the lower obverse periphery. An exceptional and highly historical offering.
