<p>[QUOTE=&quot;saltysam-1, post: 2297900, member: 23368&quot;]I just photographed this a couple of days ago. This coin circulated in Gottingen Germany as part of their commerce. It&#039;s of interest to me [ATTACH=full]461416[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]461417[/ATTACH] as I put together a local collection for my son and daughter-in-law. Generations of her family lived in Gottingen and still do. The Hesse-Cassel Landgrave was only 31 miles away by road and 24 miles as the crow flies. NGC has graded this as AU50. I have trouble believing this is more than a VF35 coin. On a great day maybe XF40. This is the second coin I purchased, in a short period, where I think they were too generous with the grade. The other was a MS62 I thought to be a AU53 at the best. Perhaps this is the leniency I hear about, which older currency is given?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
