Spanish Netherlands
Brabant. Philip IV 4 Ducaton 1640 AU Details (Mount Removed) NGC, Antwerp mint, KM-B75.1 (Rare), Dav-4451, Delm-284c (R3). 129.81gm. A monumental offering from the Spanish Netherlands series and one of only a handful for this entire denomination to come to market in recent decades. Boasting an impressive level of preservation despite its conditional qualifier, that offers commendable visual appeal for the grade designation - a consequence of balanced circulation wear that leaves a uniform expression of struck detail, embellished by traces of residual mint luster and originality. These multiple Ducatons are among the most sought-after silver pieces of this tumultuous era and are commonly witnessed in similar states, a likely result of having been mounted as a confirmation of importance of these substantial issues. NGC has only handled four such examples of this denomination, and based on a quick survey of auction records, is undoubtedly one of the finest currently available to collectors.
