This specimen was lot 2438 in Künker sale 404 (Osnabruck, March 2024), where it sold for €120 (about US$158 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. 1/12 Taler 1691, Erfurt. Münzmeister Johann Christoph Staude. Mit Kurhut bedecktes, vierfeldiges Wappen (Mainz/Ingelheim), dahinter Schwert und Krummstab gekreuzt, zu den Seiten je ein Palmzweig//* 12 * / EINEN / THA°LER / 1691 / I . C . S ., am Anfang der Umschrift das Münzzeichen Zweig. RR Kl. Stempelfehler, sehr schön. Erworben 2023 vom Münzenhandel Knopik, Eckartsberga.'' ([[Germany]], [[German States, Mainz|archbishopric of Mainz]], Anselm Francis of Ingelheim, 1679-95, one-twelfth thaler of 1691, Erfurt mint. Obverse: capped, quartered arms of Mainz and Ingelheim, sword and crozier crossed behind, palm branches around; reverse: value and mintmaster's initials. Very rare, small die flaws, very fine.)"</blockquote> Anselm Francis of Ingelheim (1634-95) succeeded Charles Henry as archbishop of Mainz in 1679. Unlike many of his predecessors, he held no other office. Mainz was occupied by the French army in 1688 which was besieged by imperial forces in 1689. The siege and resulting evacuation by the French (taking everything with them not nailed down) ruined a town already in decline. The other twelfth thaler of 1691, struck at Mainz with initials "AD", states "*12* EINEN REICHS THALER".

''Recorded mintage:'' unknown.

''Specification:'' silver, this specimen 3,13 g.

''Catalog reference:'' KM 201, Gräßler/Walde 752; Slg. Pick I (Auktion Dr. Busso Peus Nachf. 405) -; Slg. Walther 456.
