Double Taler Worthy of the Most Discerning Collections
NORWAY. 2 Speciedaler, 1657-FG. Christiania Mint. Frederik III. NGC AU-53.
Dav-3596; KM-41; Hede-22; Sieg-30; NMD-44; Aagaard-49.4; Schou-13; Bruun-9734. Weight: 57.59 gms. Mintmaster: Frederik Grüner. With less than a handful examples known, a sharp strike and lustrous fields showing only light surface marks, this is certainly a piece worthy of the most discerning collections.
An amusing detail can be seen on the portrait where the engraver's centering point looks like a wart on the king's chin.
From the L. E. Bruun Collection.
Ex: Countship of Brahesminde Collection (Private Sale - 1922).
Ex: C. F. Schubart (Copenhagen - 1831) Lot # 1105.
