Engraver: Jeremias Hercules. A immensely attractive example of this thick Double Ducat, with this example delivering a wholesome luster and sharp details. Circulation is limited, and the technical grade is at the top of its range, as evidenced by the plus designation. An example which is presumed to be UNIQUE in private hands."
