GERMANY. Saxony. Taler, 1630. Dresden Mint. Johann Georg I. NGC AU-55.
Dav-7606; KM-413; Whiting-109. Commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Augsburg Confession. A great Reformation-related issue, this elegant, wholesome, and entirely original specimen yields a deep gunmetal gray tone along with a fairly pleasing strike, with just the slightest degree of gentle handling upon the high points. As such, a tremendous representative example.
From the Augustana Collection.
Estimate: $700 - $1000
