CZECHOSLOVAKIA. 5 Ducats, 1929. Kremnica Mint. NGC MS-66.
Fr-5; KM-13; Novotny-18. Mintage: 1,827. A gaudy and flashy piece, this 5 Ducats issue demonstrates both superb luster and a crisp and refined strike. A few hits that softly break the luster likely prevent this example from attaining a Superb Gem grade. Even still, examples of this type are generally hard to find as nice, with NGC only certifying two examples as finer than this one. Resisting words and appealing directly to sensory experience, this stunner leaves little room for any platitudes and is perhaps quantifiable best in singular expressions of wonderment and excitement.
