Sigismund I the Old, Half-Groschen, 1512, Vilnius – overstamped MA/GG/ANI – very rare
A variant featuring the Pogoń without a sword sheath on the obverse and an eagle with its upper feathers pointing toward the eagle’s head on the reverse.
A punctuation variant with four dots after the date and a colon after LITVANIE – rarer.
Error – in the word …MAGNI… the letter A was struck over the letter G and the letter G was struck over the letter A; the overprint reads M A/G G/A NI—very rare.
Condition: 3+
A nicely preserved piece. A rarer punctuation variant. A very rare error—the overprint MA/GG/ANI. A rare coin that is difficult to find on the collectors’ market. An attractive piece for specialized collections.
