GERMANY. Brunswick-Luneburg: Calenburg & Luneburg (Celle). Taler, 1644. Zellerfeld Mint. Christian Ludwig. PCGS AU-58.
Dav-6517 (image revered with 6518); KM-Unlisted; Welter-1505 (Addendum). A VERY RARE year and a bit of a departure from the normal type, with the wildman facing slightly left rather than slightly right, this wholesome specimen glistens with a good deal of lustrous brilliance as one approaches the peripheries, all while some enchanting olive-green and burnished amber toning takes hold there as well.
From the Robert C. Knepper Collection.
