GERMANY. Brunswick-Luneburg: Brunswick. "Houseboy" Taler, 1660. Zellerfeld Mint. August "the Younger". PCGS MS-62.
Dav-6341; KM-442.1; Welter-822. A splendid representation of the so-called "houseboy" type, with a very muscular depiction of the forest-dwelling wildman. What makes this crown that much more enticing is its tremendously original state of preservation as well as the facial features of the focal point, which almost yields a Christ Pantokrator flair.
From the Robert C. Knepper Collection.
