Sincona sale 39, lot 3910

This specimen was lot 3910 in Sincona sale 39 (Zürich, May 2017), where it sold for 250 CHF (about US$300 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE - AUSTRIA, Leopold I. 1657-1705 15 Kreuzer 1675. Pressburg. Vorzüglich. (Holy Roman Empire, Leopold I, 1657-1705, fifteen kreuzer of 1675, Pressburg mint. Extremely fine.)"

This type, with the Madonna reverse distinctive to Hungary, was issued 1674-76 and 1695-96. It is listed as quite inexpensive so we can't explain the price realized.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: 5.45-5.7 g, silver, 30 mm diameter, this specimen 6.15 g.

Catalog reference: Herinek 1100, Huszar 1441, KM 192.
