This specimen was lot 3823 in Künker sale 335 (Osnabruck, Germany, March 2020), where it sold for €550 (about US$720 including buyer's fees). The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, <blockquote>"''BRAUNSCHWEIG UND LÜNEBURG, BRAUNSCHWEIG-CALENBERG, Ernst August, 1837-1851. 2 Pfennig 1839, A. Sehr selten in dieser Erhaltung. Prachtexemplar. Stempelglanz.'' ([[Germany]], kingdom of Hannover, Ernest Augustus, 1837-51, two pfennig of 1839. Very rare in this quality, cabinet piece, uncirculated.)"</blockquote> This type was struck 1837-46 and is common tho the proofs are rare. On William IV's death in 1837, the connection between Hannover and England was severed as Victoria became queen of England and Ernst August became king of Hannover. His tyrannical ways annoyed his subjects who nearly toppled him in the revolution of 1848.
