RRR-, Sigismund III Vasa, Ternar 1591 Snopek Vasa, Olkusz, T. 150 mk, R8

An extremely rare coin, with almost the highest rarity grade of R8 given by Kopicki, who cites only the only piece known from the Hutten-Czapski collection, Tyszkiewicz valued at 150 marks in gold - not much less than the extremely rare Sigismund III thalers from STR valued at 200 mk. On the obverse centrally a large sheaf of Vasa, above it the numeral III, in the rim SIG III D G R POL M D L. On the reverse, under the crown a shield with an eagle and a chase, and below a shield with a levron on the sides; at the top a split date 15-91, at the bottom a monogram I-F. A TREMENDOUS RARITY FOR THE MOST DISTINGUISHED COLLECTIONS.
