Lot description
Grade: XF
Reference: Kahnt 670.a, Kopicki 2152 (R2), Tyszkiewicz 12 mk

An impressive coin commemorating the war between Prussia and Saxony of Augustus III Saxony, which went down in history as the Seven Years' War. An economic war that escalated into a real conflict in August 1756, one of the consequences of which was the intensification of Frederick II's counterfeiting activities. After the Prussians took over the mints, they continued their activities, profiting from the minting of Polish coins, which were reduced in bullion purity as the war progressed. One example of this is this five-dollar coin.

A distinctive "efraimek" augustd'ora, made of lower-grade gold.

A well struck and preserved piece. Slight scarcity at the justification of the disc, with scratches also present on the obverse side. Mint crack in the puck and two small sheet flaws. The surface is slightly tarnished. Overall presentation nice, especially for the nature of this issue.

A very rare numismatic coin.
