A high-grade, exquisitely preserved shilling of the States of Prussia, minted in Torun in the period 1454-56.
Beautiful patina highlighting the beauty of the coin, the luster in the background.
In our opinion, one of the most beautiful pieces of this type on the collector's market.
Insuch a state of preservation - a great rarity.
The first Polish shellac and the first coin of the city of Torun with an extremely impressive coat of arms - a city wall with a gate and three towers.
One of the most characteristic numismatic coins of the Polish medieval period.
It was minted in fine silver, with a value that no Polish circulating shekel ever had again.
Due to the fact that it stood out for its quality and silver content, immediately after the mint was closed, it was successively caught out of circulation.
A coin absent from most, even the most advanced collections.
The few quotations confirm the outstanding rarity of this coin.
Obverse: Prussian eagle with head to the left, in a shield, in the rim the legend KASIMIRVS:D:G:REX POLOE:
Reverse: coat of arms of Toruń in a shield, above it a circle, in the rim the legend MONETA:DVCATVS:PRVCIE
An item likely to delight anyone, not only collectors of Polish medieval coins.
To the most outstanding collections.
