This specimen was lot 201 in Sincona sale 69 (Zurich, May 2021), where it sold for 375 CHF (about US$498 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"DEUTSCHLAND | Nurnberg, City. Reichsguldiner 1565. Mit Titel Maximilians II. Sehr schön. Feine Patina. (Germany, city of Nuremberg, guldiner of 1565, struck in the name of Maximilian II, Very fine, Nicely toned.)"
This type was struck 1565-76 and is fairly common. It is an early gulden, which was always fixed at sixty kreuzer. The gulden was originally equal to a thaler, then five-sixths of a thaler, then defined as two-thirds of a thaler in the seventeenth century.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: silver, this specimen 24.49 g.
