Jean Elsen sale 124, sale 732
Liege J124-732r.jpg

This specimen was lot 732 in Jean Elsen sale 124 (Brussels, March 2015), where it sold for €190 (about US$237 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"LIEGE, Principauté, Ferdinand de Bavière (1612-1650), AR nouveau daler Ferdinand de 30 sols, 1614, Hasselt. Au titre de duc de Bouillon. Droit: B. à gauche. Revers: Cartouche aux armes de Bouillon, sous une couronne, entre F-B. En dessous, XXX-1614. Très Beau. (principality of Liège, Ferdinand of Bavaria (1612-50), silver new daler of thirty sols of 1614, Hasselt mint, struck in the name of the duke of Bouillon. Obverse: bust to left; reverse: arms of Bouillon in a cartouche, crown above, divide "F-B". Very fine.)"

The bishopric of Liège was an ecclesiastical state in central Belgium and usually ruled by a Hapsburg client. The surrounding territory was ruled by the Spanish Hapsburgs from about 1500 until 1699 and the Austrian Hapsburgs 1714-97. We believe this coin to be Dav-4291 even tho this date is not mentioned therein. It is a little light to be classed as a crown. Similar types, also catalogued as Dav-4291, are recorded for 1619-46.

Reported Mintage: unknown.

Specification: 16.5 g, silver, 38 mm diameter, this specimen 16,77 g.

Catalog reference: KM 60.1, Chestret, 591; Dengis, 1033A; Delm-467, Dav-4291.
