    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! :woot:

    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 :(
