Saxony. Albert silver Proof "House of Wettin" 5 Mark 1889-E PR67 NGC, Muldenhütten mint, KM1249, Dav-800, J-123. Mintage: 706. A rare Proof issue commemorating 800 years of the House of Wettin by featuring a fantastic "Throne Scene" on the reverse. Much more often seen in a bronzed copper striking, this silver issue is the first of its kind we've had the pleasure to bring to market. The presentation of this superb Gem is awe-inspiring; from the untouched surfaces, to the blizzard-esque patina, and the unbounding reflective luminosity. Certified as NGC's finest by a full two points, and incredibly elusive as such. Ex. WAG Auction 49 (February 2008, Lot 1001) HID09801242017 © 2023 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
