Sigismund II Augustus, Lithuanian foot penny 1546, Vilnius - LIT/LITVA - AVGG error - rare
Variety of inscription with the king's title on the obverse ending in ... LIT and an obverse inscription on the reverse ending in .... LITVA
Punctuation variant without the trilateral divider at the top of the obverse otolith inscription.
Error - in the obverse otolith inscription stamped ... AVGG ... instead of AVG - rare.
Condition: 2
Minor scarcity in the rim, but for this type a beautifully preserved piece. Good detail. Gloss and lots of mint mirror. Rare error in the king's titulary - ... AVGG ... instead of ... AVG ... A rare coin and quite difficult to find on the collector's market. An attractive piece for specialized collections.
