Stefan Batory, 1579 Grosz, Danzig - asterisk - exquisite
Variant punctuation with titulature ending in asterisk
Condition: NGC MS65
Brilliantly minted and exquisitely preserved coin. Beautiful relief. Impressive detail. Intense luster and mint mirror throughout. Mint condition of the coin confirmed by an extremely high NGC grade. This is the piece that received the highest NGC MS65 grade, and it is one of two pieces with an MS65 grade, and the only one in the variant with an asterisk in the obverse inscription. In this state of preservation very rare and practically unavailable on the collector market. A specimen piece. To adorn the best collections.
