Künker sale 386, lot 6029

This specimen was lot 6029 in Künker sale 386 (Osnabrück, March 2023), where it sold for €1,000 (about US$1,292 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH, 1. Republik, 1918-1938. 25 Schilling 1936, Wien. St. Leopold. 5,29 g Feingold. GOLD. Kl. Kratzer, polierte Platte. (first republic of Austria, 1918-38, 25 schilling of 1936, Vienna mint, St. Leopold type. Minor scratches, proof)"

The SCWC, which lists this type for 1935-38, does not price this coin except in uncirculated, suggesting that it spent its life in bank vaults before entering the collector market. It may have been sold in sets with the "Mariazell" 100 schilling.

Recorded mintage: 7,260.

Specification: 5.88 g, 0.900 fine gold, .170 troy oz AGW.

Catalog reference: Her-4, KM 2856, Fr-524; J. 446; Schl. 700.
