The first vintage of thalers from the "coarse coinage" minting period. The time after the implementation of a parliamentary resolution ordering the cessation of minting of small coinage and the issuance of only high thaler and ducat denominations.
Characteristic of this vintage is the beautiful representation of the king - a wide bust with a sword, royal apple and sash.
POLO variety... PRVS MA.
Natural, circulated art, with only two scratch spots in the rim.
A prized, rare item.
