[QUOTE="altaycoins, post: 3428330, member: 16466"]I've got a new type in my collection from James Theselius Collection. Although it seems Theselius was an important collector (his collection forms the basis for Turkoman Figural Bronze Coins and Their Iconography by William F. Spengler and Wayne Sayles), there is not much about him on the internet. The only thing I can find is a discussion between archeologist Paul Barford [URL='http://paul-barford.blogspot.com/2012/11/publication-of-reverend-james-theselius.html'](link)[/URL] and the numismatist Wayne Sayles [URL='https://web.archive.org/web/20121201120744/http://ancientcoincollecting.blogspot.com/2012/11/barford-calls-on-coin-collectors-to.html'](link)[/URL] on their blogs. Does anyone have better insight on who is James Theselius? Also did you get anything from his collection?
