GERMANY. Brunswick-Luneburg: Brunswick. Taler, 1693-RB. Zellerfeld Mint. Rudolph August & Anton Ulrich. PCGS MS-63.
Dav-6389; KM-593; Welter-2071. Depicting a mustachioed wildman whose facial hair seemingly stands in greater refinement than his overwhelming lack of clothes, this choice specimen is undoubtedly near or at the apex of what can be envisioned when it comes to a superior piece. Elegantly toned and with an even, detailed strike, this exemplar will assuredly excite the connoisseur.
From the Robert C. Knepper Collection.
Ex: Peus 312 (11/1984) Lot # 2398.
Estimate: $2000 - $3000
