This specimen was lot 1022 in Stack's Bowers sale of the L. E. Bruun Collection (Copenhagen, September 2024), where it sold for €108,000 (about US$119,686 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"Alluringly Toned Rose Noble Featuring A War Elephant, DENMARK. Rose Noble, 1611. Copenhagen Mint; Privy Mark: Clover. Christian IV. NGC AU-58★. Mintmaster: Nicolaus Schwabe. A warm reddish toning along the rim further enhances this ravishing example. Only lightly circulated, with tremendous eye appeal as evidenced by the star designation NGC has bestowed on this example.
The inspiration for this beautiful, amusing and VERY RARE type came from the British Rose Nobles that were widely used in the international trade. In the contemporary official accounts the type is referred to as a "Guldridder" from the Dutch, "gouden rijder"."
This type was struck 1611-13 and 1627-29. Half rose nobles (Fr-49) exist. Christian IV (r. 1588-1648) had a long but not particularly successful reign. His war with Sweden and his intervention in the Thirty Years War were costly and brought little gain.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: 8.99 g, 0.833 fine gold, 29 mm diameter, this specimen 8.91 g.
