Owner's Description

Austria – State of Olmutz Karl II von Liechtenstein-Castelcorn, 1664 - 1695 15 Kreuzer – 1694 AU-58 KM-231.5 Census - This is the only specimen of this variety and date certified by NGC Obv. Karl II with legend and the denomination at the bottom Rev. Arms straight on top, round on the bottom with legend and date at the top. Olmutz (Olomouc), a town in the eastern part of the Czech Republic which was until 1640, the recognized capital of Moravia. It obtained the right to mint coinage in 1144, but exercised it sparingly until the 17th century, when it became an archbishopric. It is not rare to find an UNC from the 17th Century but for me landing an AU-58 is just as good as finding an UNC. My cost was $90.
