GERMANY. Brunswick-Luneburg: Wolfenbuttel. "Light" Taler, 1570. Goslar Mint; mm: patriarchal cross. Julius. PCGS AU-58.
Dav-9060; KM (MB)-138; Welter-576. A fairly RARE year, this enticing example of the so-called "light" Taler (named that on account of the wildman holding a licht [light or candle]), this near-Mint specimen offers a pleasing strike and great originality, all while very little in the way of actual handling is observed.
From the Robert C. Knepper Collection.
Estimate: $800 - $1200
