I have this as my place holder for this fabulous design of a shooting Taler. 1867 Schwyz Shooting Taler Design: Bovy Mintage: 8,000 Grade: NGC...
Austro-Hungarian (Habsburg) and Swiss Shooting Talers and Medals
Received these back. These are early year, Israel coins. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Doubled Lettering on 2 Taler Take a look at the 2 "O"s. I think it may be doubled. What do you think? [IMG]
#3 is a large holder as this is a 2 Taler size coin (55mm)
I sent these in (purchased them raw) to get them in slab and grade validated. 1) DAV-8088 Ensisheim Mint, ND, Emperor Ferdinand I (1558-1595)...
I enjoy both very much yet given the fact we mostly do not deal with an "off the shelf" product, the hunt for the right coin/s is quite trickey,...
The 1939 is very crisp with light golden toning. I agree its the most appealing (and cheapest of the lot).
Buy the Davenport book - European Crowns books. This one is : Dav-1132 Kremnitz Mint Maria Theresia (1740-1780 Rule).
Thanks so much for the tip regarding the "tapping method". [IMG] [IMG]
Just arrived: Date: 1934b Denomination: 5 Francs, Fribourg Shooting Festival Richter-431a, Martin 246/A Design: Oscar Cattani Diameter: 37mm...
Getting there, thanks. http://coins.www.collectors-society.com/registry/coins/SetListing.aspx?PeopleSetID=91130
Just received these 3 Shooting Talers. Unfortunately, PCGS messed up on the coin alignment in holder. Canton: Nidwalden Year: 1861 Richter...
Thank you very much. I appreciate it.
Swiss Talers are not my specialty, and specifically this one is quite worn, therefore I would not suspect forgery. I can say that this is a coin...
I liked the date, design, toning and price so I picked it up even though it is out of my area of focus, Talers. Will keep for now and perhaps...
I actually heard of a book that lists these. I just cant recall the name.
[IMG] Anyone know of a source (print/web) to get such figures for 16-18th century Talers?
Is this Hungarian or Vienna Mint Type?
This one is awesome. I like this type and quality is hard to come by.
