This specimen was lot 3157 in Sincona Auction 101 (Zürich, October 2025), where it sold for 250 CHF (about US$377 including buyers' fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"RDR / ÖSTERREICH Erzherzog Ferdinand II. 1564-1595. Guldentaler zu 60 Kreuzer 1568, Hall. Hüftbild mit älteren Gesichtszügen und Harnischverzierung mit parallelen horizontalen Platten. Walzenprägung. Sehr schön-vorzüglich. Leichte Prägeschwäche. (Holy Roman Empire, archduke Ferdinand II, 1564-95, guldenthaler of 1568, Hall mint. Obverse: armored half-length bust with breastplate decorated with horizontal ridges. Rotated reverse, Very Fine-Extremely Fine, Slightly weakly struck.)"
Altho Hall in Tyrol claims to be the site of the first mechanized mint, that honor seems to belong to Mühlau, now a suburb of Innsbruck, where an experimental mint was set up in 1566. It operated only briefly before being moved to Hall. The guldenthaler was five-sixths of a thaler, later to slip to two-thirds.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: silver, this specimen 24.61 g.
Catalog reference: Moser/Tursky 198, Voglhuber 90/III, Dav-52.
