Hannover SB818-22593r.jpg

This specimen was lot 22593 in Stack's Bowers ANA sale (Philadelphia, August 2018), where it did not sell. The catalog description[1] noted, "GERMANY. Hannover. 1/6 Taler, 1821-B. PCGS MS-65 Secure Holder. Stunning quality for the issue (and the single finest graded at PCGS!) with few marks over the surfaces and luster that cartwheels around the designs. Close inspection yields a touch of pale russet and green tone that highlights both sides and boosts the eye appeal to even greater heights." Altho this is a one year type, it is common.

Recorded mintage: 150,000.

Specification: 5.85 g, 0.500 fine silver.

Catalog reference: KM-129.
