This specimen was lot 1602 in Sincona sale 90 (Zurich, May 2024), where it sold for 1,500 CHF (about US$1,982 including buyer's fees). The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, <blockquote>"''RDR / ÖSTERREICH, Maria Theresia, 1740-1780. Dukat 1754, Karlsburg. Für Siebenbürgen. Gutes sehr schön.'' ([[Austria|Holy Roman Empire]], Maria Theresia, 1740-80, ducat of 1754, Karlsburg mint, for [[Transylvania]]. Good very fine.)"</blockquote> The princes of [[Transylvania]] were sandwiched between the Ottoman Empire to the south and the Hapsburg dominions to the west and attempted to maintain independence from both. The Hapsburgs reconquered Hungary from the Turks in the 1680's and ended Transylvanian autonomy. This type is listed for 1746-65. Unlike the Empire, where Maria Theresia had to rule thru her husband Franz (and later her son Joseph), she was queen of Hungary outright.
