I can't say I've seen a PCGS or NGC insert attributed to a hoard. These are super cool.
This one is pedigreed to the Preussag collection, which focused primarily on mining talers and multiple denomination talers from Brunswick. The...
Oh my - 107 days is a long time to wait. Congrats again on the new addition and good to see if finally found its way into your hands. It is a...
Best thread title I've seen for awhile. We can all relate right? Nice selection - I can understand the appeal. I like the giraffe in particular.
Sorry to hear about the delay; but congrats on the new 2T, I assume that is the CNG piece? I think you are going to like that one. I also have...
Impressive design

First 2022 addition. Wedding schautaler (Hochzeitstaler). Broad planchet, 51.5mm, Struck in 1 taler weight (27.8). Behrens 727a, attributed...
I have to agree with @Chris B - multiple talers. The bigger the better.
I thought that was you! A great set - you picked a worthy focus. Congrats.
