This specimen was lot 3667 in Künker sale 294 (Osnabrück, Germany, July 2017), where it sold for €550 (about US$741 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"KÖLN, ERZBISTUM, Friedrich III. von Saarwerden, 1371-1414. Goldgulden o. J. (1387), Bonn. GOLD. Sehr schön-vorzüglich. (Germany, archbishopric of Cologne, Frederick III of Saarwerden, 1371-1414, undated goldgulden, Bonn mint. Very fine to extremely fine.)"
Both the city and the archbishop of Cologne (or Koln) issued gold ducats and it takes a keen eye to tell them apart. Friedberg notes this type as fairly common.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: 3.5 g, 0.986 fine gold, .110 troy oz AGW, this specimen 3,50 g.
Catalog reference: Fr-792; Noss 214 c.
