German States
Pfalz-Birkenfeld-Zweibrücken. Christian IV Taler 1759 IM MS65+ NGC, KM31, Dav-2550. A scarce emission brought to market only a handful of times in recent decades and almost exclusively in lesser states of preservation, usually well-handled and with surface qualifiers. The current specimen clearly deviates from this precedent and endures virtually pristine, a likely result of having been tucked away or lost to time soon after production. The product of an exacting strike, revealing semi-medallic appearances and peach-tinged argent tone. Certainly a great rarity when located this fine and problem-free.
Ex. Johann Max Böttcher Collection (Harald Möller Auction 47, November 2007, Lot 701) From the Cape Coral Collection, Part II
