Fall 2025 issue of our Künker Exclusiv
Welcome to the Fall 2025 edition of our magazine Künker Exklusiv! In this issue, we once again take you on a fascinating journey through the world of numismatics – from rare gold coins to exciting chapters in European and global history. As usual, we begin with a preview of our upcoming auctions, the Fall Auctions 427-429, which feature a wealth of highlights: gold coins from around the world, an important special collection on the Ottoman Empire, another special collection on numismatics, the Henk Verschoor collection on the Dutch overseas territories, and – as a very special rarity – an extensive collection from Malta that brings the history of the Order of St. John to life. You can find background information on this history on pages 27-35.
In addition, get ready for exclusive insights into two eLive Premium Auctions: the continuation of the Lodewijk S. Beuth collection of Dutch paper money, and the Gerhard Lambert collection of coins and medals from Salzburg. Both catalogues show how diverse and fascinating numismatics and monetary history can be. Among other things, we take you on a journey in the footsteps of the VOC, whose coins tell of the heyday and dark side of the Dutch Golden Age (pages 19-26). We also focus on Maximilian I, the “Last Knight” (pages 36-43), as well as on “The Gryphon – On the Long Life of a Mythical Creature” (pages 44-55) and on a representative of the House of Löwenstein (pages 56-67). Finally, we introduce you to the museum in Manching, Upper Bavaria (68-71).
