Goetzdude Posted June 11, 2006 Report Share Posted June 11, 2006 K-388 ALBRECHT DÜRER, 1928, Cast Bronze, 121,0mm, Edge-punched “KgoeTz”, RRR Obverse: Dürer bust left with name and commemorative dates along rim. Reverse: Family crest and shield held by putto. Inscription reads, “Honor your German Masters.” Albert Dürer was a German painter, engraver, medalist, and writer. This was one of Goetz’ personal favorites out of everything he created. This piece can also be found in the far more common silver 60mm silver strikes and, to a far lesser extent, in struck 36 and 60mm gold, and 36mm platinum pieces. This is the only 120mm cast piece I have ever seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
