This specimen was lot 3018 in Sincona sale 94 (Zürich, October 2024), where it sold for 150 CHF (about US$208 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"SCHWEIZ Appenzell Ausserrhoden, Kreuzer 1813, Bern. Fast FDC. (Switzerland, canton of Appenzell, kreuzer of 1813, Bern mint. About Uncirculated.)"
