This specimen was part of lot 1308 in SINCONA Auction 97 (Zürich, May 2025), which sold for 80 CHF (about US$116 including buyers' fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"DEUTSCHLAND Hohenlohe-Neuenstein-Öhringen, Grafschaft, Ludwig Friedrich Karl, 1765-1805. 2 1/2 Konventionskreuzer 1774, Nürnberg. Dazu: 1 Konventionskreuzer 1774, Nürnberg. Münzmeister Georg Nikolas Riedner. Wardein Sigmund Scholz. Lot von 2 Stück. Albrecht 170, 171. Vorzüglich. Winzige Kratzer (1x).
