This specimen was lot 1264 in Stack's Bowers sale of the L. E. Bruun Collection (Copenhagen, September 2024), where it sold for €40,800 (about US$45,215 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"Handsome and Bright Gem Mint State 1746 Ducat with Vivid Luster, Struck in Gold from the Ädelfors Mine, SWEDEN. Ducat, 1746. Stockholm Mint. Fredrik I. NGC MS-65. Mintmaster: Hans Malmberg (HM). Engraver: Daniel Fehrman. Struck in gold from the Ädelfors mine in the province of Småland with a low mintage of 243, this Ducat delivers a visual appeal in addition to its RARITY. The vivid luster glows and shines, with a cutting appeal that that warms the eyes with a vivid glow. A true Gem through and through. Ex: Countship of Brahesminde Collection (Private Sale - 1922). Ex: Johan Scharp Collection (Stockholm - 1851/1853) Lot # 1081."
