    I recently had a “once in a lifetime” opportunity to get my hands on three desired Austrian Leopold “The Hogmouth” 2 Taler varieties, in high grades. I was able to trade up lower grade pieces, while supplementing my growing collection with missing types. I feel fulfilled:

    Austria Leopold I (1657-1705) The Hogmouth 2 Taler NGC AU-55, DAV-3247

    Austria Leopold I (1657-1705) The Hogmouth 2 Taler NGC MS-62, DAV-3249

    Austria Leopold I (1657-1705) The Hogmouth 2 Taler NGC MS-62, DAV-3250

    These 3 augmented my other graded piece:

    Leopold I Tyrolis (1680-1696) The Hogmouth ND 2 Taler NGC XF-40, DAV-3251

    Excellent 2 Taler pieces Zohar. :thumb: :bow:
     
  4. Cool additions! It seems the Hogmouth coins have quite a following, those are some of the nicest I've seen. Some of my oldest coins are from Austria, but none that old. Very cool!

    Is the Tyrolis coin a different type altogether?
