Leopold I 2 Taler 1675-IAN MS63+ NGC, Graz mint, KM1268, Dav-LS292, CNA-40-b-9. 57.23gm. Johann Anton Nowak as mintmaster. The sole example of the type currently certified by NGC, with a review of auction records confirming the standout quality of this specimen as compared to the norm for surviving examples, which tend to exhibit varying degrees of wear and other imperfections. Mint gloss remains evident at even the highest points, which retain a distinctive sharpness, particularly in Leopold's well-defined locks of hair and his draped, cuirassed figure. Evenly toned with pebble-gray coloration, this decidedly choice example is likely among the finest survivors of this fleeting issue.
