<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gmarguli, post: 149310, member: 246&quot;]The latest cool addition to my collection: It&#039;s a 1632 Austrian 1/4 Taler minted in Hall. It&#039;s bigger than a US quarter, but smaller than a half.</p><p><br /></p><p>This design is extremely common in the full taler size (which can be found in nice condition), but not seen nearly as often in the 1/4T size. </p><p><br /></p><p>Features the Duke in armor holding a scepter and sword on the obverse and the single-headed crowned eagle on the reverse.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.frozengold.com/messageboards/1632austria-quarter-taler.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>While the picture didn&#039;t capture it very well, there is a wonderful light blue, green, and gold toning around the rims on both sides. The luster is superb and really screams off the surfaces.</p><p><br /></p><p>Listed in Krause as a 60K instead of 1/4T, KM-590, with no price in Unc, but $350 in EF.</p><p><br /></p><p>This example just arrived back from NGC and graded MS65.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
