SB924-1088r.jpg

This specimen was lot 1088 in Stack's Bowers sale of the L. E. Bruun Collection (Copenhagen, September 2024), where it sold for €12,000 (about US$13,299 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"Beautiful Nearly Uncirculated Ducat with Much Eye Appeal, DENMARK. Ducat, 1667. Copenhagen Mint. Frederik III. NGC AU-58. Mintmaster: Gotfred Krüger (GK). A superlative example of this EXTREMELY RARE type that bears close resemblance to Krüger's Speciedalers from the same year (Hede 73). The surfaces are bright and rich, with strong details throughout and limited signs of actual handling or circulation."

This type was struck 1667-68 along with several double ducats (Fr-112). A ducat with a monogram reverse (Fr-104) and one from Gluckstadt (Fr-79) add to the variety.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: 3.49 g, 0.979 fine gold, 23.8 mm diameter, this specimen 3.47 g.

Catalog reference: Fr-82; KM-304; Hede-35; Sieg-125; Schou-5; Aagaard-61.1; Bruun-6573.
