Fr-565; cf. Huszar-42 (silver). After C. H. Roth. Diameter: 44mm. Obverse: St. George on horse rearing right, spearing dragon below; Reverse: Christ and the Apostles in ship upon tempestuous seas. A larger format example of this popular type struck in gold and silver, to differing weights, throughout the centuries, the present piece offers great relief and tremendous original brilliance, along with an enticing golden-orange allure that deepens around the peripheries. RARELY encountered so wholesome and problem-free and, as such, an example that should generate a great deal of enthusiasm. To view all items from the Augustana Collection, click here.
