Owner Comments:
1756-ICB. German States. Regensburg. Free City Taler (in the name of Franz I (1745-1765). Regensburg Mint. DAV-2618; KM-372. Cr-45a. Perfectly struck, with the most intricate details of the buildings and portrait apparent in stark detail, the fields watery, and semi-prooflike in nature, and decorated with a sheen of rich, mauve patina. Perhaps the ultimate example of this beautiful type that captures the heart of the Baroque "city view" artistic style, The finest for the date by two full grade points at NGC, and indeed the only GEM example graded by either service for all dates of the series. NGC MS-65.
