The golden St. Wenceslas five-ducat from 1937 was minted in only four pieces and never appeared in any auction. It is expected that its final price is likely to set a new record on the domestic numismatic scene. The rare five-ducat will be auctioned together with other coins and medals at an auction organized by Antium Aurum on October 2 at the Carlo IV Hotel in Prague. The auction house announced this for the first time at the Sberatel / Collector fair. The St. Wenceslas ducats are among the auction hits of recent years, and the golden St. Wenceslas ten-ducat from 1937, which was sold in 2017 for 550 thousand euros (then about 14.7 million crowns) still holds the title of the most expensive Czechoslovak coin. The five-ducat has in catalog no. 303, the entry to the auction can be found here.
