NETHERLANDS. Utrecht. 1/2 Lion Daalder (Leeuwendaalder), 1608. NGC EF-40.
KM-12; Delm-878. Light circulation does not hinder original brightness in some areas, while pewter gray cabinet patina establishes originality beyond a doubt. Some planchet flaws and a crack (as made) give this lovely and RARE example character, but they hardly distract from the design. Such a difficult coin to find that anyone looking to acquire an example of the type should not miss this opportunity.
Estimate: $200 - $300
