CZECHOSLOVAKIA. Gold Medallic 4 Ducats, 1928. Kremnica Mint. NGC MS-65.Fr-6; KMX-4; Novotny-I.A. By O. Spaniel. Obverse: Saint driving plow drawn by the Devil left, miner emerging from the ground on a ladder, holding oil lamp, tree and machine surround; all within beaded square; Reverse: Coat of arms bounded by laurel branches, arms topped by St. Wenceslas holding banner and raising hand; army on horseback behind. An attractive Gem, the present specimen honoring 10th anniversary of independence offers strong mint luster along with sharp and refined details. Some light marking consistent for the grade is noted, though nothing too obtrusive. A much-demanded original issue and ensured much spirited bidding.
