This specimen was lot 1110 in Sincona sale 93 (Zurich, October 2024), where it sold for 1,400 CHF (about US$1,941 including buyer's fees).

Sehr schön,'' Rare, Very Fine."</blockquote> In the late eighteenth century, the kingdom of [[Georgia]], which had once ruled most of the Caucasus mountains, had splintered.
