Poland, Lithuania. Segismundo II Augusto (1548-1572). 1/2 Groat 1556 - NGC MS63

POLAND. Vilnius. 1/2 Groat. 1556. Sigismund II Augustus (1548-1572) - Grade: 1/2 Groat. - Reign: Sigismund II Augustus (1548-1572). - Year: 1556. - Inscriptions: Obverse: SIGIS AVG REX PO MAG DVX LI. Reverse: MONETA MAGNI DVCAT LITVA · 1556. - Grade: MS63 (NGC). Silver half-Groat coin minted in Vilnius during the reign of Sigismund II Augustus. The obverse presents the Pogoń, the heraldic emblem of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, with a knight on horseback, sword raised, and shield, accompanied by the date 1556 beneath the motif; the reverse shows the heraldic eagle with wings spread, surrounded by the legend. Renaissance style and the characteristic hammer-struck execution of the 16th century, the piece retains especially sharp reliefs, with excellent definition in the rider, the horse’s anatomy, the eagle’s plumage, and much of the peripheral legends. The fields retain notable freshness and metallic luster, with a natural silvery tone and slight irregularities typical of the striking process. Its high conservation, certified MS63 by NGC, allows a clear appreciation of the heraldic elements of a representative issue of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania’s monetary system under the Jagiellonian dynasty. Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside the EU that has a special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
