petterkr Valued Member Norway 123 Posts	Posted 01/04/2021 4:14 pm I'm trying to find a correct attribution to this thaler. The closest I got is Davenport 6955-A, but the examples I have found have a clear clover between the helmets. Any comments appreciated, and links to similar would be helpful. Originally I had it as Dav 6953. GERMAN STATES, Mansfeld-Artern. Thaler. 1617 AK. Eisleben. Christian Ludwig. Obv: Saint George slaying the dragon, orb at upper right. Rev: Helmeted arms, date and mintmasters initials seperated to sides. 28.40 g. 42 mm. Dav 6955-A. Report this Post to the Staff

This one is attributed as Dav 6952, though I haven't taken the time to see if it's a close enough match to yours: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1794591 Report this Post to the Staff

I found a 6952 attributed by NGC thats got the filled clover and mark above. But the size and placement of the AK, and "flower pattern" to the left and right is different. I am unsure about the importance of the differences, but I will keep looking. The picture in Davenport is to dark to tell. Report this Post to the Staff
tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7955 Posts	Posted 01/05/2021 7:26 pm For what it is worth, I trust the attribution of a German auction house for a German coin, more than I trust the attribution of a U.S. grader. They sometimes get European coins wrong (I am looking at one in an upcoming auction ). Great coin, and I think you have researched it already more deeply than I have. Good luck!
