from the Stack's Bowers 2019 ANA sale, lot 20612
Lubeck SB819-20612r.jpg

This specimen was lot 20612 in Stack's Bowers ANA sale (Chicago, August 2019), where it did not sell. The catalog description[1] noted, "GERMANY. Lubeck. Ducat, 1717. NGC MS-62. Commemorating the 200th anniversary of the Reformation. An exceedingly lustrous, near choice example of this one year type with religious significance. A few light marks and a hint of striking weakness prevents an even higher designation." This one year type is rare even by Lubeck standards. Several other German states commemorated this event.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: 3.5 g, .986 fine gold.

Catalog reference: Fr-1494; KM-133; Whiting-202.
