Superb choice mint state with a lovely cabinet patina and an excellent provenance. One of the finest surviving examples of the type. In our opinion of significantly finer technical grade than the Geoffrey Cope example of SCBC-2758 (realized CHF 70,000 hammer or approximately $94,500 with the buyer's premium on 8 May 2024); that piece had a stronger strike but hairlined fields.
