Two new “1700’s” silver dollar sized purchases The Ecu is not the best grade and the Thaler is well... buffed, holed, re-toned. A “repair” that obviously did not go well! In-hand Max looks even worse than the photos. But I got both for not much over spot and do not have an example of either in my collection, so I could not resist!!![] I am really liking dollar sized 1700's - early 1800's coins lately!!! Anyone else like the big silver dollar sized coins from this era? Post-em if ya got-em!!!! All grades and conditions welcome!!!! 1726 A Ecu. France.
