This specimen was lot 391 in Künker sale 293 (Osnabruck, Germany, July 2017), where it sold for €1,050 (about US$1,415 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"PREUSSEN, KÖNIGREICH Friedrich Wilhelm III. 1797-1840. Taler 1816, A. Kammerherrentaler. AKS 12; Dav-758; Kahnt 364; Thun 245; Old. 105 b. Überdurchschnittlich erhalten. Sehr schön +. Die Vorderseitenumschrift mit der Abkürzung "K. V. PREUSS." soll den König zu der Bemerkung veranlaßt haben: "Ich bin doch nicht der Kammerherr von Preuss". Daher wird dieser Typ "Kammerherrentaler" genannt. (kingdom of Prussia, Frederick William III, 1797-1840, "Chamberlain" thaler of 1816. Above average, very fine or better. The obverse motto "K. V. PREUSS." is alleged to have led the king to remark, "I am not the chamberlain of Prussia.")"
