I am surprised you have some silver coins in addition to gold

 

Yes, I have around 50 or so/ really like them too. The neat thing is that your Talers/ multiples Talers are like the AV 10 Dukaten/ larger ones, which are unaffordable in perfect quality. I do have one....from Papal States/ 10 Zecchini 1787! One Zecchino=1 Dukat=Scudo'or.

 

One example to offer. 1790 Eichstatt 2 Taler.

That is a very nice (and very scarce!) Doppeltaler aus Anhalt-Köthen, Panzerman.
That one is on my list for next year, or alternatively, one from Waldeck.

BTW, the Doppeltaler of the german states 1838-1870 was introduced also to facilitate trade between those states on the Taler standard and those on the Gulden standard. Thus, one Doppeltaler = 3 1/2 Gulden.

 

Thank you Eduard!

Here is another one from
Pruessen
1867-C Cleve Mint
Wilhelm I

 

Just received this today , Duchy of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel 1855

 

Nice coin, congrats!

 

Very nice! Excellent detail on that Braunschweiger Doppeltaler

I have also just very recently added a Doppelthaler to my collection after few years of no additions.

It is an issue from Sachsen Coburg u. Gotha. A coin I have wanted for a very long time.

SACHSEN - COBURG - GOTHA
Ernst I., 1826-1844. Doppeltaler 1841, Dresden.
Thun 362, AKS 70.

(sorry for the reflection on the plastic).

 

That is an outstanding Doppeltaler Eduard. Nice quality too.

I just discovered this thread, and these large silver coins. They are truly amazing!! These die- workers have incredible skills.

 

wow congrats , that looks wonderful.

 

Indeed. I love the coat of arms of these old silver crowns. Thats one big reason i collect world crowns and not US coins.

 

German States/Baden 1831 Thaler... griffin fan here... my #2 favorite coin too.
