German States
Frankfurt. Free City Taler 1764 GN-PCB MS64 NGC, Frankfurt am Main mint, KM234.2, Dav-2223, Schön-71, Joseph/Fellner-831e. Few emissions have withstood the ravages of time so flawless as does the piece on offer here, at once presenting a perfect constellation of age and quality--rich plum surface tone overlaying Prooflike reflectivity while excluding all but the most negligible of marks. A distinctive pull-away tone occurs in full around the legends, adding a further visual pop and hinting at the luster than washes across the fields at a tilt of the wrist. Some extremely minor traces of what is likely wave appears in contained regions of the peripheries, perhaps suggesting an impression was taken of this coin in the distant past.
Ex. Silver Around the World Collection (Heritage Auction #3009, April 2010, Lot 21470) From the Cape Coral Collection of German Coins, Part I
