Bohemia 1619 24 kreuzer KM-227
This specimen was lot 3014 in Sincona sale 43 (Zürich, October 2017), where it sold for 450 CHF (aboout US$537 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"Stände von Böhmen und Mähren, 1619-1620 Kipper-24 Kreuzer 1619. Kuttenberg. Vorzüglich. (Estates of Bohemia-Moravia, 1619-20, kipper 24 kreuzer of 1619, Kuttenberg mint. Extremely fine.)"
Kipper 24 kreuzer were struck at Kuttenberg, Prague (KM 226) and Joachimsthal (KM 228) for the Bohemian Estates. Friedrich von der Pfalz (the "Winter King") is not cited on the coin. Altho nominally a one-third thaler, it is too light and is probably debased as well, being an inflationary issue (1620-24) of the Thirty Years War.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
