Eric P. Newman Collection, Part III // 俳句

描述:: Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel. Karl Wilhelm Ferdinand Harz-gold Ducat 1788 MC, Fr-724, MS63 NGC. Obv. Crowned arms. Rev. Date and value. Mirrored fields combine with boldly defined devices to make this a pleasing Mint State example. Quite rare in this condition. Ex: ?Colonel? E.H.R. Green; Green Estate? Partnership of Eric P Newman / B.G. Johnson. Realized $7,637.50. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

描述:: Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel. Ludwig Rudolf Harz-gold Ducat 1734-S, KM828, Fr-667, AU55 NGC. The grade is defined more by moderate handling over the ages, that has left the surfaces a tad bright, than surface wear. Essentially all the original detail remains, with a touch of striking weakness evident in Ludwig Rudolf's highest hair curls. An issue that was struck from gold mined at the Harz Mountain with the identifying Latin inscription "EX AUR HERC INF", at the base of the reverse design. A very rare type as a search of archived data has resulted in no recorded sales for the type. Ex: ?Colonel? E.H.R. Green; Green Estate? Partnership of Eric P Newman / B.G. Johnson. Realized $4,406.25. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

描述:: Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel. Ludwig Rudolph gold Ducat 1733, KM843, Fr-683, AU58 NGC. A scarce and popular one-year type with the unusual bust style of Ludwig Rudolph on the obverse and an iconic image of the "wildman" holding a tree and supporting the crowned arms of the region on the reverse. Rather flashy for the grade and admirably struck, with detail that remains sharp and full down to the minute intricacies within the arms. A slight waviness runs diagonally through the flan, but appears to be entirely natural. Realized $4,112.50. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

描述:: Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel. Ludwig Rudolf Harz-gold Ducat 1732-S, KM828, Fr-680, MS62 NGC. A beautiful example of this type with light handling and few marks of note, made scarce by the source of the gold rather than the date or variety per se. The reverse includes the legend: EX AVR HERC INF, specifying the source of the gold as being in the Harz mountains. The first mining industry in the Harz centered around silver, supplying the abundant ore that powered the Imperial mint at Goslar in the High Middle Ages. Gold mining came later and produced limited quantities of ore, leading to a number of scarce issues of coinage of Hercynian origin. Ex: ?Colonel? E.H.R. Green; Green Estate? Partnership of Eric P Newman / B.G. Johnson. Realized $9,987.50. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
