This specimen was lot 24024 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2023), where it sold for $90,000. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, <blockquote>"Excessively Lustrous Choice Double Ducat, [[Poland|POLAND]]. Danzig. 2 Ducats, ND (1694)-D L. Danzig Mint. John III Sobieski. PCGS MS-63. Obverse: Crowned and armored bust of John III Sobieski right; Reverse: Arms of Danzig; wreath above. Despite achieving somewhat lower marks on the rarity scales of Czapski and Kurpiewski, offerings of this Double Ducat from Danzig appear with much infrequency. We cannot locate an example having been traded in the past twenty years, highlighting the uncommonality of this offering. Beautiful luster bounds from the surfaces, and nary hit nor excess friction taints this example. Gleaming luster spins and dances in the light, delivering much beauty and allure. From the Anthony J. Taraszka Collection. Ex. Hess-Divo 288 (10/2001) Lot #64."</blockquote>
