Hosted in old NGC holder this uncirculated gem definitely a victim of the old grading criteria - graded as MS 63 now it would deserve much higher grade for its sparkling fields with full cartwheel luster and sharp uncirculated strike. Vereinstaler of Wilhelm I of Prussia - Berlin Mint, popular collectible coin as well as great investment find!
