SWITZERLAND. Zurich. 300th Anniversary of Zwingli's First Preaching in Zurich Gold Medallic Ducat, 1819. PCGS MS-65 Gold Shield.
Fr-490; KMX-M2; Whiting-618. Obverse: Mantled bust of Ulrich Zwingli right, wearing minister's cap; Reverse: Legend in ten lines. A great Reformation-related type, this glistening Gem radiates with a high degree of mirrored brilliance and also offers slightly frosted devices. Undoubtedly one of the finest that one can hope to encounter and, rather unsurprisingly, tied with just two others for the top spot in the PCGS census.
Estimate: $800 - $1200
