Austria
Leopold I gold 5 Ducat 1661-CA MS61 NGC, Vienna mint, KM1203, Fr-262, Herinek-85. 17.1gm. Large gold issues struck during the rule of this longest reigning Habsburg emperor are rare in any grade - as such, the present Mint State selection is wholly impressive. Dazzlingly lustrous to almost a Prooflike extent, with fields clear from major detracting marks (some prominent die-polish lines should not be confused for evidence of handling); Leopold's prominent-lipped portrait is perfectly executed with sharp detail throughout. Inspection in-hand immediately rewards the viewer, the planchet catching the eye for its immensely warm tone, the eye appeal fantastically strong. Splendid in every regard and sure to be the crowning jewel of the next collection it joins.
