From an old Austrian collection formed circa 1960s, with numbered ticket (191) noting the following provenance:
ex-Dorotheum auction 253, 23 October 1962, lot 282;
ex-Karl Hollschek (1859-1941) collection.

Karl Hollschek was one of the most important coin collectors of the 20th century. Born in Bohemia, he lived for most his life in Vienna, where he was the owner of the Karolinebad public bathhouse. He collected coins of every description, and at the time of his death he owned over 225,000 coins, including many great rarities. The collection took seven years to sell at auction in Vienna, between 1956 and 1963.
