Lot 1070
Lot 31070 > Bavaria. Maximilian II Emanuel gold 5 Ducat ND (1685) UNC Details (Edge Filing) NGC, Munich mint, KM342, Fr-215, Hauser-51. 17.36gm. A lustrous and fully Mint State selection of this broad multiple ducat featuring the distinctively styled dual portraits of the Elector Maximilian II and Maria Antonia, Archduchess of Austria. Though rim filing is noted for the sake of accuracy, the fact has little bearing on the charm that this luxurious selection offers, with its scintillating golden fields and vivid designs, these showing tremendous clarity of detail down to even the smallest facets of its ornate reverse detailing. Though light signs of contact are noted, as one would expect for any coin of the age, the presentation remains one of admirable quality, as the expansive raised design elements leave little room for any greater instances of handling in the fields to deter the eye. A very rare opportunity to acquire such a presentable representative of a doubtlessly elusive type, and, with certainty, a coin worthy of inclusion in even greatest cabinet of German or world rarities. Sold with old collector's tag.
