As the title says, these are not show-case coins. The 1799 has been damaged (or holed) on tip of the right wing, and apparently repaired; (impulsive/ignorant purchase when i was younger...). The 1798 is scratched and with several edge dings as seen, but the price was right.... Still, would be nice to hear your comments, and specially if anybody can attribute them. Thanks, Eduard
Eduard, Swweeeeett! Santa Claus must have been awfully nice to you this year! Ho! Ho! Ho! Froeliche Weihnachten (sorry, my keyboard is not set up to type in Deutsch (German))! Frank
Thank you guys for the attribution and the comments. I agree these are still desirable coins, however the 1799 i don't much care about due to the repair work. The 1798 is another story. I bought it in spite of its defects, and like it to this day. Frank, auch Dir und deiner Frau natuerlich ein sehr erfolgreiches und gesundes neues Jahr 2009! Gruss, Eduard
