Lubeck 1750-JJJ 32 schilling
This specimen was lot 22608 in Stack's Bowers ANA sale (Philadelphia, August 2018), where it sold for $80. The catalog description[1] noted, "GERMANY. Lubeck. 32 Schilling, 1750-JJJ. PCGS AU-50 Secure Holder. Well struck with delicate tone over both sides. A few errant marks below the "O" and "U" of "COURANT" are observed as well." While some catalogs equal this to a thaler, this seems unlikely, as the 48 schilling denomination occupied that spot. This was probably equal to a gulden (2/3 thaler). This type was struck 1749-50. The denomination was struck 1728, 1731-32, 1738, 1747-52, 1758, 1796-97. This specimen realized one-sixth of its catalog value.
