This specimen was lot 5092 in Sincona Auction 102 (Zürich, October 2025), where it sold for 425 CHF (about US$641 including buyers' fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"SCHWEIZ Bern, Stadt und Kanton, Halbdicken 1621, Bern. Sehr schön-vorzüglich. Schrötlingsfehler. (Switzerland, city and canton of Bern, half dicken of 1621, Bern mint. Very Fine-Extremely Fine, Flan flaw.)"
The half dicken was twelve kreuzer or three batzen. The reverse legend, "+BERCHT·DVX·ZERIN FVNDA", likely refers to Berthold V, last duke of Zähringen (r. 1186-1218).
Recorded mintage: unknown but somewhat scarce.
Specification: 3.59 g, silver, this specimen 4.22 g.
Catalog reference: KM 17, D.T. 1143b, HMZ 2-195d.
