Schwarzburg 1862 thaler rev Heritage 3010-22621.jpg

This specimen was part of lot 22621 in Heritage sale 3010 (Boston, August 2010), which sold for $345. The catalog description[1] noted, "Lot of Six German States Coins, ...Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt Taler 1862.... Coins range in grade from VF to AU." Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt is now part of Thuringia. This type is fairly unusual but the harsh cleaning on this specimen relegated it to this bulk lot.

Recorded mintage: 48,000.

Specification: 18.52 g, 0.900 fine silver.

Catalog reference: KM 177, Dav-916.
