Zeeland. Provincial gold Proof Pattern Rijksdaalder 1682 PR64+ NGC, KM-Unl., Fr-310, Delm-896 (R3), PW-Ze50.6. 41mm. 34.72gm. A promising off-metal Pattern struck to a 10 Ducat weight. Of immeasurable importance to not only the Dutch specialist, but the greater numismatic community, with approximately only 3 or 4 of this date currently known to exist; this only the second instance to reach auction in recent decades. All gold emissions of this type are highly elusive, particularly in finer surviving states, likely having served as presentation pieces to important officials who must similarly have recognized their rarity and importance even during contemporary times. The piece at hand endures as a stunning representative of a lauded type, the radiant harvest gold canvas elevated by abundant eye appealing die polish. The slightest tilt engulfs expanses notably absent of significant visual detractor as confirmed by NGC's superior conditional assignment that will ultimately be of little concern to the advanced collector of these absolute rarities. From the Coenen Collecion
