GERMANY. Ratzeburg. Taler, 1635. August. PCGS MS-62.
Dav-5732; KM-115 (listed under Brunswick-Luneburg-Celle); Welter-882. Abnormally choice for the issue, this elusive Taler from the far northern bishopric of Ratzeburg displays a far above average strike with alluring compliments of antiqued multicolor tone that is mostly confined to the legends on the obverse with more extensive coverage on the reverse. Truly, a coin that delights; it is surely to be a welcome addition to the next collection it enters!
Estimate: $1500 - $2000
