This specimen was lot 5206 in Künker sale 354 (Osnabrück, Germany, September 2021), where it sold for €800 (about US$1,113 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"BRAUNSCHWEIG UND LÜNEBURG, BRAUNSCHWEIG-CALENBERG-HANNOVER, AB 1692 KURFÜRSTENTUM HANNOVER, AB 1815 KÖNIGREICH HANNOVER, Georg V. 1851-1866. Vereinskrone 1864, B. GOLD. Fassungs- und Hitzespuren, fast sehr schön. (Germany, kingdom of Hannover, George V, 1851-66, union crown of 1864. Has been mounted and sweated, about very fine.)"
