SWEDEN. Riksdaler, 1772. Stockholm Mint. Gustav III. NGC MS-65+.
KM-509; Dav-1734; SM-38(38); Delzanno-3; Hagander-514; Bruun auction-2055; Bruun-13090. Weight: 29.35 gms. Portrait of 1772. Edge lettering: MANIBVS NE LAEDAR AVARIS ("May I not be damaged by avaricious hands"). Mintmaster: Albrekt Lindberg (AL). Engraver Carl Gustaf Fehrman. A precisely produced Gem, this Riksdaler is beautifully detailed and the as-made dielines provide a touch of character to the surfaces. Colorful toning is seen in different locations, most vibrantly at the legends and in the protected areas of the design. It should not be a surprise that NGC has not seen a finer example of this date.
