This specimen was lot 55489 in Stack's Bowers ANA sale (Pittsburgh, PA, August 2023), where it sold for $504. The catalog description[1] noted, "GERMANY. Brunswick-Luneburg: Brunswick. Taler, 1692-RB. Zellerfeld Mint. Rudolph August & Anton Ulrich. PCGS Genuine--Cleaned, EF Details. From the Robert C. Knepper Collection. Ex: Kunker Auction # 77 Lot # 1945." Rudolf August was the older brother and inherited the title on the death of August II in 1666. Interested in art and hunting, he delegated affairs of state to his brother Anton Ulrich, a situation he formalized in 1685 by making him co-ruler. Four different thalers were struck in 1692: KM 572.2/Dav-6393 (shown here) struck 1688-92, KM 577/Dav-6395 struck 1688-1703, KM 593/Dav-6389 struck 1691-99; and KM 602.1/Dav-6396 struck 1692-93, rare.
