German States
Lippe-Detmold. Paul Alexander Leopold 2 Taler (3-1/2 Gulden) 1843-A MS65 Prooflike NGC, Berlin mint, KM250, Dav-724, AKS-5, Thun-212. Mintage: 16,800. As deeply Prooflike as one could expect to find short of a fully Proof designation, an honor to date awarded to just a single issue from this principality (also in this sale). Besting the Rockaway example by a point as the top graded--no small feat for a Double Taler--and certainly one of the most special pieces that the type collector could hope to acquire for the issue.
Ex. Künker Auction 100 (June 2005, Lot 793) From the Cape Coral Collection of German Coins, Part I
