<p>[QUOTE="Collect89, post: 1159694, member: 15445"]This last weekend, we visited a coin show at the Polish House in Hartford Connecticut. They serve great Polish beer and food on the first floor which helps draw a crowd. The coins are on the second floor. My friend & I met with a fellow CoinTalker (Brokencompass) at the show. We traded some coins and had fun meeting in Hartford.

These coins were not anywhere on my want list but they were attractive & they were being offered at a very good price IMO. Here is the ½ Taler. Please let me know your opinion of the coin. This one is in an NGC holder so if you want to guess at the grade, I’ll post the NGC opinion tomorrow. It is a no-problem coin with natural toning & it is bright enough for me to enjoy under normal room lighting. </p><p><br /></p><p>Go ahead & guess the grade.

[QUOTE="Collect89, post: 1159694, member: 15445"]This last weekend, we visited a coin show at the Polish House in Hartford Connecticut. They serve great Polish beer and food on the first floor which helps draw a crowd. The coins are on the second floor. My friend & I met with a fellow CoinTalker (Brokencompass) at the show. We traded some coins and had fun meeting in Hartford. I’m hoping that Brokencompass posts some of the Indian coins he found at the show. At the show, I found a 1665 Hungarian Leopold ½ Taler and a 50 Centavos from 1885 Spanish Philippines. These coins were not anywhere on my want list but they were attractive & they were being offered at a very good price IMO. Here is the ½ Taler. Please let me know your opinion of the coin. This one is in an NGC holder so if you want to guess at the grade, I’ll post the NGC opinion tomorrow. It is a no-problem coin with natural toning & it is bright enough for me to enjoy under normal room lighting. Go ahead & guess the grade. There have been several great posts here at CT describing the Leopold coins. I will do a couple searches & post the links later tonight for everyone’s convenience.[/QUOTE]
