This specimen was lot 1135 in Künker sale 293 (Osnabruck, Germany, July 2017), where it sold for €650 (about US$876 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"REGENSBURG, STADT, 15 Kreuzer (1/8 Reichstaler) o. J. mit Titel von Franz I. Slg. Bach (Auktion Künker 238) 4829. Von großer Seltenheit. Sehr attraktives Exemplar mit herrlicher Patina, vorzüglich. (Germany, city of Regensburg, undated fifteen kreuzer (1/8 thaler), struck in the name of Francis I. Very rare, very attractive example with beautiful patina, extremely fine.)"
This silver eighth thaler or quarter gulden was minted in the free city of Regensburg sometime before 1750. It was probably minted to apologize to Francis I for supporting his rival Karl VII in the War of the Austrian Succession.
Recorded mintage: unknown but scarce.
Specification: silver.
Catalog reference: Beckenb. 6364, KM-315.
