An exquisite mint Lublin trojak of a rarer type, with beautiful luster turning to mirror and a subtle patina.
Sharp relief, excellent details.
The most beautiful, and the only one so far with an MS grade on the domestic auction market.
A rare, sporadically listed variety with an abbreviated, undivided date between the crest and the mint mark.
In popular types of this vintage, the date is placed on the sides of the Daniel Koste mark.
RDA already offered a similar trojak, but with a different bust:
