This specimen was lot 4299 in Sincona sale 39 (Zürich, May 2017), where it sold for 200 CHF (about US$240 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"Salzburg, Erzbistum, Max Gandolph von Küenburg, 1668-1687 Taler 1672. Fast vorzüglich. (Germany, archbishopric of Salzburg, Max Gandolph von Küenburg, 1668-1687, thaler of 1672. About 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 1668-77, 1680, 1685-86 and is common. The superseding type (Dav-3510) is very similar.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
