This specimen was lot 2140 in Goldberg sale 128 (Los Angeles, June 2022), where it sold for $108. The catalog description[1] noted, "Ragusa. Tallero, 1753. Bust left. Reverse: Crowned ornate arms. Light adjustment marks. NGC graded VF-30." This coin is an example of a type struck 1751-79 for the Republic of Ragusa, a Christian enclave on the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea. At the time, it was an independent city-state surrounded and protected by the Ottoman Empire, which ruled most of the Balkans. Ragusa was occupied by French troops in 1805 and annexed by Austria in 1814. The SCWC doesn't give its exact specification but it is roughly equal to contemporary German thalers.
