Revision as of 23:36, 16 November 2024
This specimen was lot 3371 in Sincona sale 91 (Zurich, May 2024), where it sold for 475 CHF (about US$638 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"SCHWEIZ Neuenburg/Neuchâtel, Heinrich II. von Orléans-Longueville, 1595-1663. Kreuzer 1619, Neuchâtel. Sehr selten. Gutes schön. (Switzerland, principality of Neuchâtel, Henry II of Orléans-Longueville, 1595-1663, kreuzer of 1619, Neuchâtel mint. Very rare, Good fine.)"
While the principality of Neuchâtel was long associated with the Swiss Confederation, it was under seigneurial rule rather than oligarchic rule as in the other cantons. French aristocrats ruled until Marie de Nemours's death in 1707, then under Prussian rule 1707-1806, then part of Napoleon's empire, then Prussian again 1815-57, whereupon it was merged completely into Switzerland. This type was struck 1606 and 1610-18. This date is not listed in the SCWC.
