this is my first post here. I go by "demodigger" on another coin forum. I collect world crowns and just got this one.
cool coin I found it in my 2004 19th century Krause world catalog. Switzerland KM#S17 1885 5 Francs, .835 silver, mintage- 25,000 grade/value VF-$50.00 XF-$70.00 UNC.-$125.00 BU-$175 values could be higher in real life market welcome to CT.
Lovely design, as so many of these Swiss shooting thalers have. Could very well be a habit-forming category to collect.
PS- Hey, Brian! I know you! I know how you got "dirty", too! Same way I got "dirty" in my "Dirty Movies"... Would love to see you (and anyone else who was so inclined) over on my treasure hunting game.
I looked at an Austrian Taler today at the coin show. The big one with the horse on the back. Unfortunately, it looked VF and had a price tag of $750
