Description

DENMARK. Ducat, 1732. Copenhagen Mint. Christian VI. NGC MS-63+.
Fr-249; KM-540; Hede-2; Sieg-8; Schou-1; Bruun-7568. Weight: 3.49 gms. Mintmaster: Christian Wineke. Engraver: Georg Wilhelm Wahl. Sharply struck and most desirous, this alluring Choice Ducat does not lack for eye appeal. Soft glossy luster wafts from the flan when held in the light, and evidence of contact marks or wispy handling is exceedingly limited. Featuring a reverse legend of "DEO ET POPVLO" ("God and the people"), the king's royal motto, this Ducat has an added appeal. A Ducat that is short on faults, and not lacking for distinctions.
From the L. E. Bruun Collection.

Estimate: $8000
