Stack's Bowers September 2024 Collector's Choice sale, lot 74149
SB924-74149r.jpg

This specimen was lot 74149 in Stack's Bowers Collectors Choice sale (Costa Mesa, CA, September 2024), where it sold for $336. The catalog description[1] noted, "AUSTRIA. Holy Roman Empire. 1/2 Taler, 1624. Vienna Mint. Ferdinand II. PCGS Genuine--Cleaned, AU Details. Despite some minor cleaning, this example remains an enticing representative of the emission." This type was struck 1620-24 with a large ruffed collar. While the print edition of the SCWC shows the correct photo for this type, confusingly, the NGC online guide shows a photo of KM 447. Other half thalers for 1624 include KM 514 (Vienna mint, small collar), KM 447 (archduke Leopold), KM 446 (Graz mint) and KM 513 (St. Polten mint).

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: silver.

Catalog reference: KM-261; Herinek-688; Hahn-59.
