Description

CZECHOSLOVAKIA. 10 Ducats, 1929. Kremnica Mint. NGC MS-65.
Fr-4; KM-14; Novotny-19. Mintage: 1,564. The first year of issue of this most famous of modern European issues, this large sized 10 Ducats issue was produced to honor the millennium since the first of two dates given for the death of Wenceslaus I of Bohemia, the patron saint of the Czech government. Though 1929 has the second highest mintage of series, this should not be confused with commonness, as this date is still quite SCARCE. Fully struck, this Gem offers a shimmering glow of bright luster that offers a feast of beauty to the eyes of the beholder. A few patches of deeper plum toning fleet and flick across the surfaces, adding a colorful touch. Some hits and soft contacts are noticed, though nothing too obtrusive or disconcerting. A chance to acquire one of the premier modern RARITIES the entire European series has to offer.
