Sincona sale 23, lot 3087

This specimen was lot 3087 in Sincona sale 23 (Zürich, May 2015), where it did not sell. The catalog description[1] noted,

"Olmütz, Bistum, Karl III. von Lothringen, 1695-1710 Taler 1704. Kremsier. Sehr schön-gutes sehr schön. (bishopric of Olmütz, Charles III of Lorraine (1695-1710), thaler of 1704, Kremsier mint, very fine to good very fine.)"

This one-year type is among the commoner issues from this ecclesiastical state in Moravia, then part of Austria, now the Czech Republic. Later thalers from the 1720's are listed quite inexpensively.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: silver; this specimen 28.32 g.

Catalog reference: Suchomel/Videman 574. Lichnowsky-Mayer 342. Dav-1208, KM 362 (formerly KM 103).
