Subasta 160 - Tauler&Fau Selection

Lot 101

Kingdom of Castille and Leon. Pedro I (1350-1368). Dobla of 35 maravedis. Sevilla. (Bautista-Unlisted). (Imperatrix-P1:10.37, same dies). (Abm-Unlisted). Anv.: + PETRVS : DEI : GRACIA : REX : CASTELLE : ELEGIO :. Rev.: + PETRVS : DEI : GRACIA : REX : CASTELLE : ELEGION. Au. 4,49 g.

Double mintmark, with an “S” in the 1st and 4th quarters. The obverse legend begins at 1 o’clock. Lovely color and extreme rarity, making it a piece of the highest interest for collectors. This is the only known specimen in private hands, and the first time it has ever been offered at auction.

Only 2 other examples are known, which are from the same dies: one in the National Archaeological Museum (ref. 106.166) and another in the Cabinet des Médailles of the Bibliothèque Nationale de France (ref. 309).

This represents a unique opportunity to acquire a true museum piece that is unlikely to appear on the market again, especially since the other 2 known examples are held in public institutions. AU. Est...35000,00.
