I just won an Auction in Denmark

I just won another piece of Swedish Plate Money in an auction in Denmark. It has a square center stamp that was only used for 3 years, (1715 to 1717) and it is one of the few plates that was in circulation, and not revalidated with a round stamp during that year.
There were 79,000 ½ Daler Plates minted that year, but only 139 of those have survived. Plates with Square center stamps, and no revalidation stamps just never show up for sale, and I even got it for $100 less than my maximum bid was. This plate is about 5 inches square.

It made my day.
