Brunswick-Lüneburg-Celle. Friedrich V 3 Taler 1647-LW AU55 NGC, Clausthal mint, KM177, Dav-LS135 (this coin plated in the 1972 ed.), Knyphausen-8432, Elbeshausen Collection-708, Preussag Collection-127, Welter-1399. 86.71gm. Lippold Wefer as mintmaster. With legend on obverse, and value stamp "3" on reverse. By no means a type that is offered with any regularity at auction, especially as such--without serious doubling, die shifts, or flan cracks along the edges. Graced with cabinet toning over the surfaces, this piece presently stands as one of a mere three examples certified by NGC to date. Additionally, this specimen doubles as the plate piece in Davenport's seminal reference.
Ex. UBS Gold & Numismatics Auction 55 (September 2002, Lot 2449)
