This specimen was lot 41364 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2023), where it sold for $288. The catalog description[1] noted, "GERMANY. Brunswick-Luneburg: Hannover. 2/3 Taler (Gulden), 1716-HH. Zellerfeld Mint. Georg Ludwig (George I of Great Britain). PCGS AU-55. From the Robert C. Knepper Collection." The SCWC divides this type into KM 112.1, struck 1716-21 with a "24" in the field, and KM 112.2, struck 1722-27 without the "24". This issue of 1716 clearly lacks the "24".
