This specimen was lot 2797 in Künker sale 384 (Osnabrück, March 2023), where it sold for €500 (about US$646 including buyer's fees). The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, <blockquote>"''Paris von Lodron, 1619-1653. 1/2 Dukat 1648. GOLD. Sehr schön-vorzüglich.'' (archbishopric of [[Austria, Salzburg|Salzburg]], Paris von Lodron, 1619-53, half ducat of 1648. Very fine to extremely fine.)"</blockquote> The Archbishopric of Salzburg was an ecclesiastical state between Bavaria and Austria and usually ruled by a Hapsburg client. This type was struck in klippe (KM 152) format in 1643-44 and 1649-50 and round format (shown here) in 1643-44 and 1648-52. These are not the first half ducats from Salzburg but the first not extremely rare. In the seventeenth century, Salzburg was blessed with a number of productive silver mines and the prince-archbishop was a prolific issuer of coins, particularly thalers. The archbishopric was secularized in 1803 and passed to [[Austria]] in 1813.
