This specimen was lot 252 in Sincona sale 69 (Zurich, May 2021), where it sold for 900 CHF (about US$1,195 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"DEUTSCHLAND | Sachsen, Herzogtum, ab 1547 Kurfürstentum, ab 1806 Königreich | Albertiner. August, 1553-1586. Taler 1557, Annaberg. Gutes sehr schön. (Germany, electorate of Saxony, August I, 1553-86, thaler of 1557, Annaberg mint. Good very fine.)"
