Leopoldus 1692 Thaler

I bought my first Hogmouth. Been looking for one for a long time. The dealer pulled out an AU58 that was really out of my budget. It was absolutely amazing. Had to settle for a lower grade.
I really like the coin but have been having trouble attributing it. As most of the references just don't have photos. The most prevalent attribution is Davis 3262. Problem is that they are shown with a large bust and a smaller bust. This one is the larger bust, and I can't find any attribution that matches. Maybe I am missing the right mint?
Does anyone have any Davis records?



Post em if you got em.

Cant help you with any attributions, but I have his little brother here on my desk in a 3 Kreuzer version.

 

Thats nice I like it.

 

Your Thaler is super cool.

That's a very nice thaler!

The mint for this coin is Kremnitz (Hungary). On the obverse to the right, in the legend, is the Madonna and child used for this mint. With the date 1692, your coin is Davenport 3262. I'm sure there's a KM number as well, but I don't own a copy of that reference for the 17'th century.

Here's a link to a Wikipedia page for this coin:

Here's one for sale. The the obverse looks hairlined or even tooled in the fields, based on the images.
