Künker sale 386, lot 5135

This specimen was lot 5135 in Künker sale 386 (Osnabrück, March 2023), where it sold for €700 (about US$905 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"BRAUNSCHWEIG-LÜNEBURG-CELLE, FÜRSTENTUM, Christian Ludwig, 1648-1665. Reichstaler 1649, Clausthal. Hübsche Patina, sehr schön-vorzüglich. Exemplar der Talersammlung Dr. Heinz Pielsticker, Auktion Fritz Rudolf Künker 184, Osnabrück 2011, Nr. 4306. (duchy of Brunswick-Luneburg-Celle, Christian Louis, 1648-65, thaler of 1649, Clausthal mint. Fine patina, very fine to extremely fine.)"

This "leaping stallion" thaler is listed for 1649-65, i.e., Christian Ludwig's entire reign. However, despite the many years of production, it is on the expensive side.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: silver, this specimen 28.86 g.

Catalog reference: KM 211, Dav-6521; Welter 1511.
