Rev. FERD·III·D:G·ROM·IMP·SEMP·AVG:
Silver, 19.93 g, 41.4 mm. Davenport 714; Kalvelage & Trippler 176e, an unrecorded punctuation variant. Extremely Fine, slightly worn, underlying lustre on both faces. Exceptionally nice specimen as for this rather crude issue.
The Oldenburg florins, modelled on the
Netherlandish achtentwintigs, minted from silver barely nine lot pure, were
light talers intended for the Levantine trade; they are often found in Poland.
