This specimen was lot 40360 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2023), where it sold for $240. The catalog description[1] noted, "NETHERLANDS. Holland - Friesland. 28 Stuivers, ND (1693). PCGS VF-30, Countermark: AU Details. Countermark: Raised HOL within rectangle indent. Applied to the obverse of a 1690 Friesland 28 Stuivers (Florin) (KM-10)." This silver florin of 28 stuivers was struck in Friesland 1601, 1614, 1665-66, 1683-91. Its crude design caused it to be heavily counterfeited, hence the countermark applied in Holland, which verified its authenticity.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: 17.30 g, 0.765 fine silver.
Catalog reference: KM 10 (before countermark), KM-69.3 (with countermark).
