This specimen was lot 30480 in Heritage sale 3029 (New York, January 2014), where it sold for $2,350. The catalog description[1] noted, "Frederik IV Krone 1700-(h), AU58 NGC. Beautifully toned in a light lavender with iridescent overtones. There is very light evidence of circulation over the high points of a firm strike. The flan shows tiny imperfections as is typical of this issue. The arms of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden are interspersed through crowned monograms, making this one of the more striking reverse designs of the Frederik IV series." Ninety six skilling danske made a specie daler. Many would not class this as a crown, being too small, but it has a Davenport number so we will include it.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: 17.98 g, 0.833 fine silver.

Catalog reference: KM 448, Dav-A1287, Hede-36, Sieg-17.
