Stunningly Rare Commemorative Issue from An Original Mintage of 70
CZECHOSLOVAKIA. Gold Medallic 5 Ducats, 1934. Kremnica Mint. NGC MS-65.
Fr-14; KMX-20; Novotny-VI.B (RRRR). Mintage: 70. By: Anton Ham. Obverse: St. Catherine kneeling in prayer and supplication, mining equipment before her being illuminated by the glory of God from a radiant cloud; behind her, arms of Hungary-Anjou and flowering plant, all within hexagon; Reverse: Scenes of mining operations within a hexagon, further encircled by border of beads and legend. A VERY RARE type struck in commemoration of the reopening of the Kremnica mines, with a paltry mintage in the double digits. Bold semi-Prooflike luster flows through the fields, with nary a mark to be seen and only the gentlest of high-point scuffing preventing a higher grade.
From the Augustana Collection.
