Revision as of 09:02, 23 June 2025
This specimen was lot 4691 in Sincona sale 95 (Zürich, October 2024), where it sold for 375 CHF (about US$520 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"SCHWEIZ Zürich, Stadt und Kanton, Halbtaler 1745, Zürich. Spruch. Vorzüglich-FDC. (Switzerland, canton of Zürich, half thaler of 1745, Zürich mint, motto reverse. About Uncirculated.)"
This type was struck 1723-36, 1739-45, 1748, 1751-61, 1767-68. Half thalers with a city view reverse (KM 146) were struck 1720-26, 1729, 1732-36, 1739-45, 1748, 1751-53, 1756-61 and 1767-68, so most years have both types. They are about equally common but the city view obtains a premium for the more interesting design.
