Danzig. Johan III Sobieski gold Ducat 1688/6 UNC Details (Damage) PCGS, Danzig mint, Fr-36, cf. Gum-2046 (overdate unlisted), CNG-375 (same). IOAN • III D G • REX POL • M • D • L • R • PR •, crowned, armored bust of Johan Sobieski right / MON • AUREA CIVITAT • GEDAN (rosette) 1688, pair of lions flanking the Danzig arms. Attractively struck with ample residual luster, and the small bit of waviness that does exist in the flan proving quite minor. The designated damage appears to be a private punch behind the bust, and we note some small areas of residue around 11 and 6 o'clock on the obverse for the sake of completeness.
