This specimen was lot 1428 in Sincona sale 76 (Zürich, May 2022), where it sold for 950 CHF (about US$1,153 including buyer's fees). The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, <blockquote>"''HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE - AUSTRIA. Leopold I. 1657-1705. 1/2 Taler o. J. (1691/1692), Hall. Gutes vorzüglich. NGC AU58. Herrliche Patina.'' ([[Austria]], Leopold I, 1657-1705, undated half thaler, Hall mint. Good extremely fine, Most attractively toned.)"</blockquote> This piece and the accompanying [[Austria (1691-92) 1/4 thaler|quarter thaler]] have very different busts, making it difficult to believe that they were actually struck at the same time. The auctioneers attribute both to 1691-92, which we have followed here, but the SCWC attributes them to 1658.
