This specimen was lot 409 in Künker sale 293 (Osnabruck, Germany, July 2017), where it sold for €280 (about US$377 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"PREUSSEN, KÖNIGREICH Friedrich Wilhelm IV. 1840-1861. 1/6 Taler 1858, A. R Winz. Randfehler, fast Stempelglanz. (Germany, kingdom of Prussia, Frederick William IV, 1840-61, one-sixth thaler of 1858. Scarce, minor rim bumps, about uncirculated.)"
This type was struck 1858-60 and is rather scarce. The one-sixth thaler was one of many minor denominations struck alongside the better known thalers and gold coins. It was issued steadily 1809-68, when the unification of 1871 rendered it obsolete.
Recorded mintage: 96,212.
