Brunswick-Lüneburg-Calenberg. Ernst August 2 Taler 1680-RB AU53 NGC, Zellerfeld mint, KM-A269, Dav-LS233, Knyphausen-2574, Preussag Collection-208, Welter-1920. 52.01gm. Rudolf Bornemann as mintmaster. With value stamp "2" on obverse. An instantly appealing large-size issue, featuring the arms of Osnabrück (a wheel) in the foreground of a highly detailed ship-at-sea scene. Evenly patinated in a soft graphite to stone-gray color that lends a sculpturesque appearance to the piece, it is hard to imagine the type with a much more appealing presentation for the grade. This offering certainly possesses a cabinet feel that is bound to be appreciated by its future owner.
Ex. UBS Gold & Numismatics Auction 55 (September 2002, Lot 2401)
