NETHERLANDS. Holland. Goldgulden (Florin d'or), ND (1499-1506). Dordrecht Mint. Philip the Handsome. NGC AU-58.
Fr-133; Delm-756. Weight: 3.25 gms. Obverse: Half-length bust of St. Philip facing slightly right, holding cruciform staff and Gospels; crowned coat-of-arms in foreground; Reverse: Voided cross fleuree, with five-petalled flower at center; lis and crowns alternating in angles. On the cusp of Mint State status, this golden-orange example provides great overall detail and serves as an excellent representation for the coinage of Philip the Handsome, the father of the future Charles I/V of Spain/Holy Roman Empire. Misidentified on the NGC holder as an issue from Flanders and Bruges Mint.
Estimate: $1200.00- $1500.00
