Gentlemen - I've edited out numerous posts that crossed over the line as to what is acceptable to be discussed here and what is not when it comes to things of a political nature. Please make an effort to stay on the numismatic side of the discussion.
I have a small group of denars. I stop with 1550. 1503-12 Obverse and reverse. 1513-27 Obverse and reverse. Photo lacking a few years; I've since filled in. 1528-39. Obverse and reverse. Photo lacking a few years; I've since filled in. 1540-1550 Obverse and reverse. Photo lacking a few years; I've since filled in.
I have posted this on another thread but it fits very well here Lajos (Ludwig) II (1516-26) 1 1/4 Taler 1525
Awesome and choice assemblage of Hungarian coins! Thanks to all. I wish I could have read the 'edited' conversation between Siberian Man and panzerman; I am certain it would have been interesting. In any case, here's a mint set I picked up in 1995 while in Hungary, 3. Republic.
Forgive me, the sir. You are right. We really distracted from numismatics and began to discuss policy. I recognize, it was inappropriate.
The 1 to 100 forint coins I like, mostly due to how the digits are shaped and placed. "Different" in an interesting way; the current 200 HUF circulation coins have a similar style. Christian
... lQQks like i'm right on time getting this denar Ferdinand l (king at the time, as it were) coin delivered today..i mostly collect ancients of late, but i have also labored to collect world coins from the start of my collecting 15 years ago. i collect alot of stuff...(mostly dust) i'm working on the Hapsburg coinage again. Ferdinand I, King of Hungary, AR denar, 1528, 14mm, 0.5gms.
I also collect everything. My favorite area of collecting isHoly Roman Empire gold coinage. Here is one from Hungary... AV 1/6 Dukat
I really enjoyed visiting the parliament building in Budapest and had to buy this when I saw it at the Numismata in Munich.
I would say it differently, a passion for beautifull coinage, deep, empty pockets One can also say it like this, poor in paper currency backed by nothing today, but rich in real money ie: gold/ silver/ platinum/ paladium coins.
