Eichstätt - Bishopric. Sede Vacante 2 Taler 1790-W MS67 NGC, Nürnberg mint, KM95, Dav-2212, Gebert-106. 55.95gm. By Johann Peter Werner. In a word: spectacular. Simply enviable quality for any broad-sized emission of the 18th century, with just a single other survivor having been certified in comparable quality. Frosty to the extreme over the raised elements, while a pearly luster pervades the recesses of the fields, and a full rainbow of iridescent tone forms along the margins. Even close examination suggests nary a flaw of any serious consequence, solidifying its supremely Gem Mint State grade from NGC. We have offered the only other survivor yet awarded this certification--a practically tone-free representative--which achieved $20,400 as part of our May Platinum Night Sale.
