The first specimen was lot 1645 in Stephen Album sale 30 (Santa Rosa, CA, January 2018), where it sold for $2,350.

The second specimen was lot 1646 in Stephen Album sale 30 (Santa Rosa, CA, January 2018), where it sold for $2,585.

The third specimen was lot 38117 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2025), where it sold for $384. The catalog description[2] noted, "EGYPT. 5 Pounds, AH 1415/1994.
