This specimen was lot 70484 in Stack's Bowers Collector's Choice sale (Costa Mesa, CA, October 2021), where it sold for $120. The catalog description[1] noted, "DENMARK. 16 Skilling Rigsmont, 1857-FK VS. Copenhagen Mint. Frederik VII. NGC MS-65+. This lovely little Gem exhibits a bold strike with frosty devices and smooth satiny surfaces displaying light mottled tone." Danish currency endured several "reforms" in the nineteenth century. After the reform of 1854, the monetary system was 96 skillings = 1 rigsdaler, 2 rigsdaler = 1 (old) speciedaler. This type was struck 1856-58 and was one-sixth of a rigsdaler. In 1874, the coinage was reformed again to the current system of 100 øre = one krone.
