Another popular collectible uncirculated coin from Frankfurt-am-Main - Taler 1864 (Vereinsthaler or "Union Taler"). Great medallic design with Franconia in a new dress and round hair bun. Sharp strike with great details, luster preserved, attractive patina, some single contact marks determine the grade - graded as MS 63 by NGC. Great collectible coin in general! Popular item!
