Austria
Archduke Leopold 2 Taler ND (1621) MS62+ NGC, Ensisheim mint, KM258 (listed under Alsace under German States), Dav-3339, MzA-111. 58.31gm. An already highly scarce multiple Taler that is catapulted to an entirely new tier of rarity in this exceptional conditional state. Besting the next finest we have been able to locate by over 7 grade points (an AU55), the present offering positively radiates with mint originality, an even glassy sheen washing over the surfaces while die polish congregates in the margins. Only a handful of annealing flaws give any sense to the challenges that faced the minting of such a coin, leaving the specimen undeniably choice for the type.
