This specimen was lot 55550 in Stack's Bowers ANA sale (Pittsburgh, PA, August 2023), where it sold for $80. The catalog description[1] noted, "GERMANY. Brunswick-Luneburg: Brunswick. 4 Mariengroschen, 1782-CES. Zellerfeld Mint. Karl Wilhelm Ferdinand. PCGS AU-58. From the Robert C. Knepper Collection."

By this time, the gulden had slipped from two-thirds to half a thaler, making this coin one-twelfth of a thaler.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: silver.

Catalog reference: KM-1007; Welter-2920.
