SWEDEN. Ducat, 1726. Stockholm Mint. Fredrik I. NGC MS-62.
Fr-58; KM-398; SM-10(10): SG-18; not in Hagander; Bruun-12769. Weight: 3.48 gms. Mintmaster: Esaias Zedritz. Mintage: 1,283. An EXTREMELY RARE type that is hardly ever seen in auction, with this particular date likely the rarest. Demonstrating alluring eye appeal and charm, this nearly-Choice Ducat demonstrates a brilliant essence of soft luster that is more reserved than flashy. The strike is nice, with only a touch of weakness on the higher elements of the design. As one of the more uncommon Swedish Ducats, this handsome example certainly does not lack for appeal.

From the L. E. Bruun Collection.
