Christian VIII Speciedaler 1840-FF MS64 NGC, Altona mint, KM720.2, Dav-74. A coin which straddles the line between brilliant and virtually Prooflike--its surfaces, while wheeling with cartwheel luster, contain a darkened watery flash against clearly frosted devices. Yet when analyzed under magnification, these appear satiny and textured with fine flow lines. Both elements secure the offering's lofty eye appeal, and are certain to ensure it a place of prominence in its future owner's collection.
