This specimen was lot 1135 in Künker sale 293 (Osnabrück, Germany, July 2017), where it sold for €650 (about US$876 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

(Germany, city of Regensburg, undated fifteen kreuzer (1/8 thaler), struck in the name of Francis I. Very rare, very attractive example with beautiful patina, extremely fine.)"
