GERMANY. Regensburg. 1/2 Taler, 1782-GCB. Joseph II. NGC MS-63.
KM-444; Beckenbauer-7206. By Kornlein. Obverse: Armored bust of Emperor Joseph II; Reverse: Intricately detailed illustration of Regensburg. Well-struck over both sides with a remarkable city-view design on the reverse that is only elevated by accents of hard multicolored tone that outline nearly every raised surfaces. Truly, an item that should defy price-guide evaluations, as eye-appeal this superb is nearly impossible to match.

An interesting one-year type that depicts a bust of the emperor that bares little resemblance to what he is believed to have looked like in real life.
From the Linda Collection.
Ex: Ernst Otto Horn Collection.
Estimate: $700.00- $1000.00
