NETHERLANDS (United), Utrecht, gold ducat, 1717, rare, NGC MS 62 (Shipwreck Blue Label). KM-7.1; Fr-285. While the usual date for Utrecht ducats from this wreck was 1724, a handful of earlier dates were reported, including 47 of the date 1717 (see page 48 of Bjørn Rønning's 1979 book Akerendam: The Story of the Runde Treasure), this example in second-highest grade with very sharp full details against satin smooth fields harboring muted luster, the obverse curiously doubled and the reverse with bits of dark encrustation in crevices. Recovered from: Akerendam, sunk in 1725 off Norway
