Dav-2655; KM-803; Schnee-1011. Tied for second finest certified with three other examples on the NGC population report, only two finer (MS-64). Issued for the elector's term as vicar of the empire. Boldly struck and lustrous, this choice uncirculated example boasts frosty intricate devices with satiny luster on the obverse while the reverse displays more reflectivity.
