This specimen was lot 1062 in Stack's Bowers sale of the L. E. Bruun Collection (Copenhagen, September 2024), where it sold for €66,000 (about US$73,141 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"Stunning 1/2 Portugaloser with Nicely Preserved Luster, DENMARK. 1/2 Portugaloser (5 Ducats), 1653. Copenhagen Mint; Privy Mark: Poker. Frederik III. NGC AU-55. Mintmaster: Henrik Köhler. Engraver: Jeremias Hercules. A UNIQUE variant and a majestic, lustrous and beautifully struck example of this EXCESSIVELY RARE type which is known by only a handful of examples.
These weighty gold types were probably made on the request of wealthy merchants for large international payments. The same obverse die was used to strike both 1, 2, 5 and 10 Ducats and while large multiple-Ducats were normally struck with a larger diameter or even with Taler dies, this emission is an extremely rare example of an exceedingly thick gold coin."
Numista says this type was struck again in 1662. This denomination was struck intermittently in the seventeenth century but always for presentation.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: 17.5 g, 0.979 fine silver, this specimen 17.18 g.
Catalog reference: Fr-98; KM-Pn10; Hede-12; Sieg-113; Schou-4; Aagaard-13.1 (53-1/53.1); Bruun-6083.
