Description
1794 Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel Ducat
Great Eye-Appeal and Rarity
Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel. Karl Wilhelm Ferdinand Harz-gold Ducat
1794-MC, KM1023, Fr-724, MS62 NGC. An attractive specimen with
fully prooflike fields and devices that rise sharply and hold
considerable frost. The type, produced over a number of years, is
deceptively elusive with our research, yielding only a small
handful of examples that have sold since 1999, with none being of
the same date as the present. As such, we expect this specimen to
receive significant attention, as the combination of eye-appeal and
rarity is certainly a compelling one.Ex: "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green Estate' Partnership of Eric P Newman / B.G. Johnson.
Metal: Gold

Truth Seeker: The Life of Eric P. Newman (softcover)
A powerful and intimidating dealer of the 1960s, backed by important colleagues, was accused of selling fraudulent gold coins and ingots to unsuspecting numismatists. Who would go up against a man like that and, over the course of decades, prove the fraud? Who would expose a widely respected scholar as a thief, then doggedly pursue recovery of coins that the scholar had stolen from an embarrassed numismatic organization, all over the objections of influential collectors who had bought coins with clouded titles? Eric P. Newman would - and did. Reserve your copy today.
