Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel. Friedrich Ulrich 1-1/2 Taler 1625-HS AU55 NGC, Goslar or Zellerfeld mint, KM356, Dav-LS57a, Duve-13, Preussag Collection-Unl., Welter-1033. 43.34gm. Hermann Schlanbusch as mintmaster. Without value stamp. Struck to commemorate the yield of St. Jacob's mine in the Harz Mountains. A rare multiple taler depicting St. Jacob, staff in hand and standing on flower-covered ground, with Jehovah's name displayed above within a radiant sun. Highly elusive in this denomination, we located only one other example in sales archives from the larger part of the last two decades, with that same specimen selling twice in European auctions between March 2016 and January 2021. Modestly circulated, with significant mint gloss that prevails across the surfaces underneath a veil of silver cabinet tone, concentrating in depth to provide an emboldened effect around the devices. Traces of crimson and green-gold iridescence contained within the outer border further elevate this offering's appeal.
