Lot 30539 > Wladislaw IV silver "Truce in Sztumska Wies" Medal 1642 MS61 NGC, HCz-2151. 58mm. Commemorating the Treaty of Stuhmsdorf between the Swedish Empire and Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth, an extraordinarily beautiful medal with quality and eye appeal far transcending its certified grade. Its designs are enchanting, the obverse featuring the allegories of Faith and Piety shaking hands, the reverse with Peace and Justice embracing, the entirety struck in high relief and with minimal highpoint rub. The peripheries have toned to two rings of deep goldenrod, turning vibrant cobalt in the legends, terminating with a pale red-gold haze over original dove-gray centers. A scarce medal and potentially unique with this incredible visual allure.
