Stack's Bowers 2022 ANA sale, lot 30316
SB822-30316r.jpg

This specimen was lot 30316 in Stack's Bowers ANA sale (Chicago, August 2022), where it sold for $7,800. The catalog description[1] noted, "BOHEMIA. Ducat, 1588. Prague Mint; mm: lis. Rudolph II. PCGS MS-63. VERY RARE this exceptional, the present example is undoubtedly one of the finest extant, as it provides a strong strike throughout and shimmering brilliance that really comes alive when cradled back and forth in one's hand. For the connoisseur of tantalizing Bohemian issues, this piece certainly ranks rather highly. From the Augustana Collection." Friedberg lists this type for 1583-94 and notes that Vienna struck this type as well (see Fr-87).

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: 3.5 g, 0.986 fine gold.

Catalog reference: KM MB295, Fr-12 (Bohemia), Fr-88 (Austria); Halacka-295.
