DENMARK. For Valor Restrike Silver Medal, ND (1709). Frederik IV. NGC MS-65. Galster-298; JS-659; Stevnsborg-LS1-012; Bruun-15548. Diameter: 60 mm. Weight: 98 gms. By Peter Berg (P BERG). Extremely rare medal of Valor; frosty devices and mirror-like fields, with a high relief portrait devoid of wear. The Medal of valor or "Virtuti et fidei" medal was commissioned by the king in 1709 in eager anticipation of Danish victories on the resuming of the war with Sweden. The unfortunate outcome, a series of losses, explains why only 10 silver and 10 gold medals and were struck. It is believed even fewer restrikes were made. Estimate: €4,000 - €5,000.
