Owner Comments:
1739 Mainz silver medal – anniversary of Johann Franz von Hoheneck as Mainz cathedral dean. 44 mm; Pr. Alex. 835; Walther 714, 27.43 g. Date is chronogram, which is the interesting part of this medal. Normally, 1739 would be represented as MDCCXXXIX, but date appears to be MDCCVVVVVVVIIII.
