Hesse-Darmstadt. Ludwig III 5 Mark 1876-H, KM353, MS62 NGC. A spectacular, lustrous coin with satin surfaces, silvery patination and carbon highlights. Currently, there are only five certified examples of this type, but this is the only one graded mint-state with the next finest not even making it into the ballpark. Bright, bold and exceedingly difficult to find, especially in such a select grade. Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $170 in VF, $2500 in EF, $7000 in UNC, $9000 in BU.
Estimate: 3750-4250 USD
