This specimen was lot 74015 in Stack's Bowers Collector's Choice sale (Costa Mesa, CA, November 2023), where it sold for $120. The catalog description[1] noted, "HUNGARY. Denar, 1636-KB. Kremnica Mint. Ferdinand II. PCGS MS-62. A Mint State survivor, this example offers exceptionally colorful iridescence." This type was struck 1630-37 for Ferdinand II. The previous type (KM 88) was struck in large quantities 1625-30. Both are common. Ferdinand II had to content himself with a small slice in the west of Hungary. The Hapsburgs would not conquer the rest of Hungary and Transylvania until the end of the seventeenth century.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: silver, 14-15 mm diameter.
Catalog reference: KM-95; Huszar-1205.
