1614. Alsace. Ensisheim Mint. Archduke Maximilian III (1612-1618) 2 Taler. DAV-3325, KM-280. Obv: Draped and cuirassed bust of the Archduke right, wearing Teutonic Order chain. Date below. Rev: Crowned complex arms with cross of the Teutonic Order at centre, flanked by small shields of Upper Alsace and Ferrette. Compelling for its type and nearly Mint State, with even gunmetal patination permeating russet- and cobalt-tinged devices. An ornately decorated multiple Taler rarely encountered in this fine a condition and sure to interest collectors of the series.
Ex. Beaussant Lefèvre (October 2010, Lot 421)
