German States
Münster. Christof Bernhard von Galen Broad Taler MDCLXI (1661) MS63+ NGC KM75, Dav-5603. Struck on the taking of the city by the Bishop. While we have seen a small number of talers of this type, none have been able to exceed or even match the quality displayed by this example. The sharpness of the strike, giving way to only insignificant softness in smaller areas, is complemented by shimmering fields that reveal no larger marks or distractions, the color transitioning to darker accenting tones along the legends and central features. A beautiful example of 17th century taler coinage.
