"SACHSEN-GOTHA, HERZOGTUM, AB 1672 SACHSEN-GOTHA-ALTENBURG Ernst der Fromme, 1640-1675. Reichstaler 1675, Gotha, auf seinen Tod und seine Beisetzung. Selten, besonders in dieser Erhaltung. Herrliche Patina, winz. Schrötlingsfehler am Rand, sehr attraktives, vorzügliches Exemplar. (Germany, duchy of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg, Ernest the Pious, 1640-75, thaler of 1675, Gotha, on his death and funeral. Rare, especially in this quality, handsome patina, minor rim cracks, very attractive, extremely fine.)"
