This specimen was lot 10566 in Ponterio sale 169 (Baltimore, November 2012), where it sold for $588. The catalog description[1] noted, "LIECHTENSTEIN. 5 Kronor, 1910. NGC MS-65." This type was issued 1900, 1904, 1910 and 1915 in small numbers but enough were saved that it is only somewhat scarce today. Altho the prince still issues commemorative coins on occasion, the locals use Swiss coinage in daily commerce.
