This one was listed for sale back in 2013 as well. Note the same hand written serial number on the back. See that post for some additional details. According to the new listing:
"This is an original condition minimoog D of the musonics era. This one is a rarity as its not branded musonics even thought the manufacture dates and serial numbers correspond to that time period. The best explanation I've gotten is that during the time of the merger between moog music and musonics some were labeled moog music.
serial number is 1246 (#246 built) was built between the last week of december 1971 and first week of jan 1972, on a snowy christmas, 45 years ago!This is a native New Yorker, built in Williamsville and lived most of its life there.
It is in rare unrestored condition and completely original even the 2 wire power cord. Has its original, correct RA moog boards as you can see in the photos.
There was a pot installed at the top left when I purchased it (controlling external cv for the keyboard possibly) and there is a drill hole present.
I've owned 3 minis over the years of all the various rev's and this one is by far the best sounding; These early moogs have a very special sound thats hard to describe, very electric and focused, 3d and punchy as can be, maybe a bit closer to its moog modular roots."
