This specimen was lot 2433 in Künker sale 404 (Osnabruck, March 2024), where it sold for €2,600 (about US$3,412 including buyer's fees). The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, <blockquote>"''DAS ERZBISTUM MAINZ. ERZBISCHOF ANSELM FRANZ VON INGELHEIM, 1679-1695. Die Münzstätte Erfurt. ½ Dukat 1680, Erfurt. Geprägt mit den Stempeln des 3 Pfennig-Stücks. Mit Kurhut bedecktes, vierfeldiges Wappen (Mainz/Ingelheim), dahinter Schwert und Krummstab gekreuzt, zu den Seiten je ein Palmzweig, darüber AF - EM, unten im Kranz das Münzzeichen //Reichsapfel mit Wertzahl 3, zu den Seiten die geteilte Jahreszahl 16 - 80. GOLD. Von großer Seltenheit. Sehr schön +. Exemplar der Auktion Sincona 11, Zürich 2013, Nr. 919.'' ([[Germany]], [[German States, Mainz|archbishopric of Mainz]], Anselm Francis of Ingelheim, 1679-95, half ducat of 1680, Erfurt mint, struck using threepence dies. Obverse: capped, quartered arms of Mainz and Ingelheim, sword and crozier crossed behind, palm branches around; reverse: imperial orb with value divides the date. Extremely rare, choice very fine.)"</blockquote> Anselm Francis of Ingelheim (1634-95) succeeded Charles Hnery as archbishop of Mainz in 1679. Unlike many of his predecessors, he held no other office. After the French invaded and wrecked his diocese in the 1690's, he moved to Aschaffenburg. This is an off-metal presentation strike of half ducat weight which the SCWC lists as a pattern. These presentation strikes were very popular in the Netherlands and appear occasionally in the German series. The regular type was struck 1680-82, 1685-86, 1689-90. The "AF+EM" means "Anselm Franz, Erzbischof von Mainz".
