I find it frustrating, that the modern coins mass produced by most Countries today cannot even come close to the artistic appeal of the coins made during 16th.19th Centuries. Today, we see those God awfull colored stuff, themes like Comic Book heros. No wonder, so many of us collect the older material. Look at the 1629 Bohemia AV 40/50/100 Dukaten commerating Ferdinand III as future Holy Roman Emperor....so nicely designed, right during the middle of the Thirty Years War to boot. Today, nothing comes close. Germany has not struck a beautifull coin design since Kaiser Wilhelm II! United States had the St. Gaudens design, which were outsatanding. FDR put an end to that in 1933, result 21 Trillion in debt.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
