IMPORTANT NOTE - The Buyer's Premium is now $20 per lot or 20% of the hammer price, whichever amount is greater. However, we have also reduced opening bids on lower value items to adjust for the new Buyer's Premium structure, so all-in costs are still very close to what they were in the past. This change in fee structure will allow us to continue to offer coins valued at less than $100 in addition to our higher value offerings. Contact us with any questions.
SCHONGAU: Ludwig II, 1255-1294, AR denier bracteate, ND (1268-94), Bonhoff-1941, Berger-2685, scarce, a lovely lustrous mint state example! PCGS graded MS63, ex Joe Sedillot Collection. Between 1268 and 1298, Schongau in Upper Bavaria grew in strategic and economic importance during the decline of imperial authority and the rise of the Wittelsbachs. Fortified and well-positioned for trade, the town developed under the relative autonomy of the Bavarian dukes amid broader political shifts in the Holy Roman Empire.
