This specimen was lot 10137 in Stack's Bowers Collectors Choice Online Auction (Costa Mesa, CA, February 2025), where it sold for €216 (about US$225). The catalog description[1] noted, "DENMARK. 1/2 Krone, 1621. Christian IV. NGC EF Details--Cleaned. From the L. E. Bruun Collection." This type was struck 1619-21 with various mintmarks and varieties and was worth 3/8 speciedaler. "· R · F · P ·" is not a mintmark but the king's motto, "REGNA FIRMAT PIETAS". Christian IV (r. 1588-1648) had a long but only moderately successful reign. His war with Sweden and his intervention in the Thirty Years War were costly and brought little gain.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
