Thank you for posting you Venus denarius, TTerrier, and for the discussion on the dating. I confess I have never paid much attention to the dating...
Well done, CBD! I hope to cherry-pick one of these one day.
Does this variety not have the die chip above the 8? I can't see it on CBD's coin. I thought this was supposed to be a marker for all 1858/7's?
I was also hoping to see a '36 with reeded edge.....;). But, the 1815 makes up for it. Beautiful coin. BTW, which is actually scarcer, the 1815...
Following a specific theme may be an idea for a German Taler collection. One theme that I like are the city-view Talers. Coinage portraying views...
Great find! Interesting how Galba denarii are almost never found. I found 2 Vitellius but never a Galba, either.
I can let you have my 2016 AKS (31. Auflage) if you want (free of course). I have the 2018, but frankly, not much difference as prices really do...
I wish you lots of fun with Talers! German coinage from the 1800's in general was my first collecting passion, and I still have quite a number of...
I forgot to mention the 'Standard catalogue of German Coins', 1501- Present, compiled by N.D Nicol. Published by KP (?). This is a very...
Hi Brandon, I collect German coin of the late 1700's and into 1870. For this area I highly recommend the following catalogues: 1. Deutscher...
That makes three already...
interesting you post that 1837 half. I have wondered the same about this 1837 half I have. Notice how the obverse edge and denticles are quite...
Thank you Paddy !
Before we get too far away from the year 1861, I thought I would throw in this cent from that year (totally forgot I have one.....):). [ATTACH]...
Just a few IHC's in my collection - this is one of my favourite. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
They are all very nice. I have to agree, though, the 1801 and 1802 are special. The 1794 half dollar is of course a scarce and significant issue,...
Now we want to see your 1807:).
My goodness, Larry! have you won the lottery? An absolutely lovely coin. I'll venture a grade too: EF45, for a variety which (I think) is known...
That is a beautiful aureus, Suarez (interesting name)! Very well chosen. As you say, "Many collectors often start by getting worn "starter"...
In our small village here in Hessen people speak 'Hessisch'. I call it the German version of English Cockney. Sometimes I try to imitate it at...
