Case: 12" x 9". Popular promotional item from 1981 (Calhoun Collectors Society, Inc.) featuring a choice Mint State gold ducat (this one frosty and lustrous, with fully detailed knight's head) and a cross-section of silver coins from the wreck (all solid but none numismatically important), along with a guide on the back of the certificate (number 137) that explains each type and notes that some uncleaned examples were included to show what they look like as recovered, the case in good shape except that the hinged back is a little loose. With book Akerendam: The Story of the Runde Treasure (1979), by Bjorn Ronning. From: Akerendam, sunk in 1725 off Norway
($1500-2250)
