SWEDEN. Pomerania. Riksdaler, 1655. Karl X Gustaf (1654-60). NGC AU-55.Dav-4577; AAL-36; KM-217.1 (under Germany). Elusive and highly desirable as a type, this piece exhibits surfaces that are attractively toned and without major instance of contact. The strike, nearing completion, is only soft on a small portion of Karl X Gustafs head as well as the corresponding area on the reverse. Highly exciting as the only example of the type to appear in a major American auction in over a decade.From the Collection of Dr. James Eustace Bizzell, II.<p>Ex: Grundy Collection. Ex: Ran Zander Collection.
