This specimen was lot 22054 in Stack's Bowers ANA Auction (Denver, CO, August 2017), where it sold for $646.25. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "AUSTRIA. Salzburg. 1/2 Taler, 1695. Archbishop Johann Ernst Graf von Thun und Holstein (1687-1709). PCGS MS-65. Sharply struck with the minute details visible without the aid of magnification. Lustrous with light attractive peripheral tone on the obverse and attractive slate grey on the reverse showing hues of blue and gold." The Archbishopric of Salzburg was an ecclesiastical state between Bavaria and [[Austria]] and usually ruled by a Hapsburg client. In the seventeenth century it was blessed with a number of productive silver mines and the prince-archbishop was a prolific issuer of coins, particularly thalers. This type was struck 1687, 1694-1700, 1702-1708 and is fairly common.
