This specimen was lot 2428 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 Mainz. 1/12 Taler 1692, Mainz. Münzmeister Andreas Dittmar. Mit Kurhut bedecktes und verziertes, vierfeldiges Wappen (Mainz/Ingelheim), dahinter Schwert und Krummstab gekreuzt//[drei Ringe übereinander] 12 [drei Ringe übereinander] / EINEN / REICHS / THALER / 1691 / A • D, am Ende der Umschrift ein Zweig. RR Herrliche Patina, Zainende, min. justiert, sehr schön +. Erworben 2012 von der Münzenhandlung Johannes Diller, München.'' ([[Germany]], [[German States, Mainz|archbishopric of Mainz]], Anselm Francis of Ingelheim, 1679-95, one-twelfth thaler of 1692, Mainz mint. Obverse: capped, quartered arms of Mainz and Ingelheim, sword and crozier crossed behind, palm branches around; reverse: value, date and mintmaster's initials. Very rare, superb patina, clipped, minor adjustment, choice 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. This type is listed in the SCWC for 1689-92 from Erfurt and Mainz.
