This specimen was lot 2448 in Sincona sale 33 (Zurich, October 2016), where it sold for 350 CHF (about US$416 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"Württemberg, 1495 Herzogtum. Karl Eugen, 1744-1793 Konventionstaler 1759. Stuttgart. Sehr schön. (Germany, duchy of Wurttemberg, Charles Eugene, 1744-93, convention thaler of 1759, Stuttgart mint. Very fine.)"
This rather scarce type is one of two for the date. The other (Dav-2859) has the duke's sash going the opposite way.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: 28.06 g, 0.833 fine silver.
Catalog reference: KM 408, Klein/Raff 359; Dav-2859.
