This specimen was lot 1076 in Stack's Bowers sale of the L. E. Bruun Collection (Copenhagen, September 2024), where it sold for €10,800 (about US$11,969 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"Extremely Rare Type with No Others Known in Private Hands, One of Only Three Privately Held Triple Speciedalers of Frederik III, DENMARK. 3 Speciedaler, 1662. Copenhagen Mint. Frederik III. NGC VF Details--Obverse Graffiti. Mintmaster: Johan Stichmann (IS). Engraver: Johan Blum. Likely the only example in private hands, with the only other known example residing in the National Museum of Denmark. To say this 3 Speciedaler is EXTREMELY RARE would be to underplay its importance. When studying the entirety of Frederik III's reign, only three examples of Triple Speciedalers have been registered as being privately owned. With no other examples on the horizon, bidders must consider this appearance as likely once-in-a-generation, and act accordingly. While this example does display some issues, with graffiti on the obverse, it is yet presentable and reasonably well detailed. A singular opportunity for the specialist in Danish coinage, and a piece that is numismatically and historically important."
