MIR-135. Weight: 14.75 gms. Obverse: Laureate and armored bust right; Reverse: Crowned and garnished coat-of-arms over imperial double eagle. Well struck on a rather broad flan for the type, this choice specimen is about as alluring and attractive as one is likely to encounter, presenting a deep cabinet tone with some amber-seafoam green hints and shimmering brilliance accentuating the devices. For the fan of stunning late medieval/early modern issues, one need look no further.
Estimate: $1000 - $1500
