I picked this coin up on ebay for $9.00 because the seller didn't market it very well by not taking advantage of a better description for the auction. Less traffic means less bids! :hail: This coin is 1 oz of .925 silver This is probably my favorite coin out of my whole silver collection... even better than the 2008 Kookaburra... All silver collectors should pick this coin up.
Well, that is not a coin but some kind of fantasy issue. But a silver ounce is a silver ounce ... Christian
Now your gold piece is actually a coin, as you will know. It commemorates the 1000th anniversary of Margrave Leopold, from the Babenberg family, becoming the ruler of a territory that was later called Austria. Nice coin! Christian
Nice stuff Chris. The Austrian line is more complicated than thoroughbred horse linage's to the original Arabians. Thanks for the link. PS Franz Joseph never looked better than your coin. Traci
