Revision as of 13:15, 5 July 2022
This specimen was lot 847 in Sincona sale 11 (Zurich, May 2013), where it sold for 650 CHF (about US$805 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"DEUTSCHLAND Frankfurt am Main, Stadt Dukat 1638. Fast vorzüglich-vorzüglich. (Germany, city of Frankfurt, ducat of 1638, extremely fine.)"
This type is listed for 1633-44. While much more available than the contemporary double ducat (Fr-971), it is not common.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: 3.5 g, .986 fine gold, .110 troy oz AGW; this specimen is 3.45 g.
Catalog reference: KM 85, J&F 427. Fr-972.
