Facing half-length bust of Eberhard II, wearing episcopal attire, raising his right hand in benediction and holding crozier turned inward in his left. Rev. Incuse of obverse. Berger -. Cahn 55. Münzen & Medaillen GmbH 40 (2014), 745 (same die). Ulmer -. Wüthrich -. Extremely rare and in exceptional condition for the issue. Very light marks, otherwise, good extremely fine.


This is only the second example of this extremely rare issue to appear in a public auction in the past two decades, and far superior to the Münzen & Medaillen piece, which sold for 4'400 EUR in 2014.
