Can anyone show me a high grade example of this type?

I could only find images of talers of that type in relatively low grade. The image below is of a high grade 2 ducat. The main devices are the same as on the taler, but the legend on the obverse is truncated to CIVI rather than CIVIT, and lacks legends on the reverse.

The bear appears to be very friendly.

I like those pieces though

I thought I saw this, also in low grade, in an auction this year. It had a very high reserve for a coin in such a grade that I didn't really appreciate. I think that piece was a VF piece, but a very wholesome specimen.

So is this considered a condition rarity (in high grades) or just rare all-around?

I saw a black bear once at my camp site. Thankfully he did not stand or wave his claws "hello"

Can anyone show me a high grade example of this type?
