CZECHOSLOVAKIA. Silver Medallic 5 Ducats, 1929. Kremnica Mint. NGC MS-67.
cf. Fr-10 (for gold issue); KMX-5; cf. Novotny-II.C. By: Otakar Spaniel. Mintage: 1,631. Obverse: St. Wenceslas standing, head left, holding banner; Reverse: St. Wenceslas on horseback left, holding banner, accompanied by two angels. An exceedingly expressive example here delivering the famed and popular design in an off-metal silver striking. Deep toning occasions across the surfaces and plays off the underlying luster, only furthering the appeal of this example. A wonderful example for anyone who loves coins the ooze with beauty.
From the Whytecliffe Collection.
Estimate: $600 - $900
