Quedlinburg. Dorothea von Sachsen Taler 1617-HL MS64 NGC, Quedlinburg mint, KM9, Dav-LS374, Schnee-638, Cappe-198. Struck on the Centennial of the Reformation. Heinrich Löhr as mintmaster. With HL initials written in ligature to left of arms. A conditional outlier by all metrics, and more importantly, a specimen without any traces of circulation wear. Beautified by impressive luster that reaches a crescendo on the reverse, this feature meeting opalescent hues that further secure its status as an ideal type coin. While only two specimens have been certified by NGC to date, the fact that the next finest ranks as a mere AU53 certainly gives a strong indication of the conditional rarity of this piece. The single-finest certified representative to date, and unsurprisingly so.
