SWEDEN. 2 Ducats, 1850. Stockholm Mint. Oscar I. NGC MS-64+.
Fr-89; KM-680; SM-4(4); SG-4; Hagander-658; Bruun auction-2255; Bruun-13473. Weight: 7.00 gms. Mintmaster: Alexander Grandinson (AG). Engraver: Ludvig Persson Lundgren. VERY RARE with a mintage of 819. The 5 in the date appears to be overstruck, possibly on a 6. Delivering a grandiose and vivid allure resultant from bright luster that gleams and glows when held in the light. Soft frost is seen across the devices, providing a nearly prooflike appearance. Surfaces are essentially free of marks, falling just short of a Gem grade, as evidenced by the "+" grade modifier.



From the L. E. Bruun Collection.

Ex: Countship of Brahesminde Collection (Private Sale - 1922).

Estimate: $15000 - $25000
