Russia: Anna gold "Death" Jeton (Ducat) 1740 AU58 NGC,...

Description

Ex. Hesselgesser Medallic Ducat of Empress Anna

Anna gold "Death" Jeton (Ducat) 1740 AU58 NGC, Diakov-83.3 (R3), Bitkin-423 (R1), Fr-109. 3.40gm. A fantastic example of this Death Commemoration type Medalet for Empress Anna, struck to Ducat specifications in this thrilling gold format. Due to a few unique depressions in the flan on the Empress' neck, shoulder, and face, we were able to trace this specimen back to an early offering of the Hesselgesser Collection by the Goldbergs, this auction taking place in February of 2001. The strike of this piece was strongly impressed, showing exaggerated dentilation in parts of the rim area. But perhaps the most striking feature of this rare specimen is the original caramel toning that, when combined with the ample luster still present, shimmers spectacularly in the light. This issue in gold has appeared at public auction once in the past decade, so given that level of scarcity and the fantastic condition of the piece on offer, we anticipate the bidding for this lot will be vigorous.

源自Hesselgesser舊藏之安娜女皇杜卡特

1740年安娜「女皇駕崩」Jeton（杜卡特）金幣。AU58 NGC。
3.40克。這款「安娜女皇駕崩」金幣採用杜卡特規格，黃金材質叫人眼前一亮，實為箇中精彩一例。憑藉女皇頸項、肩膊和面龐的數處坯餅特徵，敝司查出此章出自2001年2月由Goldbergs出售的Hesselgesser集藏。此章鑄打深峻有力，邊緣位置甚至過猶不及。但最出眾矚目的特徵則要數到原始陳舊的焦糖棕包漿，光澤依舊飽滿明淨，在燈光下更是閃閃生光。這枚金幣在過往十年間僅曾於公開拍賣中亮相一次，珍罕程度可見一斑，加之出類拔萃的品相，敝公司預計投標盛況將空前熾熱。
