The following three lots were part of a silver hoard discovered on the 5th DFebruary 1967, when an old house on the Breitenstrasse No.42 in Bad-Hersfeld was demolished. The hoard included twenty-three spoons, four beakers, a pipe-implement, and a silver-gilt tankard. It is likely that the silver was most probably hidden during the thirty years war (1618-1648) by the family Vonder Tann-von Haune.
