This specimen was lot 3117 in Sincona sale 23 (Zurich, May 2015), where it sold for 400 CHF (about US$503 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"Salzburg, Erzbistum, Franz Anton von Harrach, 1709-1727 Taler 1723. Sehr schön-vorzüglich. (Germany, archbishopric of Salzburg, Francis Anthony of Harrach (1709-27), thaler of 1723, very fine to extremely fine.)"
The Archbishopric of Salzburg was an ecclesiastical state between Bavaria and Austria and usually ruled by a Hapsburg client. In the seventeenth century it was blessed with a number of productive silver mines and the prince-archbishop was a prolific issuer of coins, particularly thalers. This type was struck 1723-27 and is priced about four times the thalers of Mozart's time.
