Pomerania-Cammin. Bogislaus XIV Taler 1635 MS66 NGC, Stettin mint, KM86, Dav-7285. An aspirational example of a scarce type encountered only a handful of times at auction in recent memory, and certainly none as fine as the unfathomable MS66 at hand, a covetable designation for any Taler issue of this vintage. It is unlikely a piece in comparable condition will be seen, especially one displaying as superior an aesthetic caliber as this offering. Decidedly well-struck to a majority of the devices, with only scattered areas of weakness to the legends and the sitter's nose, as is commonly associated with this issue. Despite this, the expansive coin expresses an impressive preservation, with every detail down to the individual whiskers of facial hair painstakingly engraved and fully embossed upon the slate planchet, leaving an impression of quality hard to surpass. Pondlike mirror resplendence fills the fields dressed in a luxurious coating of lavender, cobalt, and peach; a covetable toning palette for any coin, and clearly the result of having been locked away for seemingly centuries in an advanced collector's cabinet. This lot presents a singular opportunity and is expected to garner fervent bidding.
