This specimen was lot 2139 in Künker sale 293 (Osnabruck, Germany, July 2017), where it sold for €380 (about US$512 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"POLEN, THORN, Stadt. 18-Gröscher (Ort, 1/4 Reichstaler) 1662, mit Titel Johann Kasimirs (1649-1668). Mit Münzmeisterzeichen HD-L auf der Wappenseite (Hans David Lauer, Münzmeister in Thorn 1649-1668). Sehr schön-vorzüglich. Exemplar der Slg. Bernhard Terletzki. (Poland, city of Thorn, 18 groszy or quarter thaler of 1662, struck in the name of John Casimir, 1649-68, with mintmaster's initials "HD-L" on the obverse. Very fine to extremely fine.)"
This denomination, struck at Thorn in various styles 1650-68, seems to be unique to Poland. The SCWC notes that it traded for a quarter thaler but may only have been a fifth.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: silver.
Catalog reference: Dutkowski/Suchanek 1653; Kopicki 8326 (R1), KM-35.
