[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 3746635, member: 10461"]Two newps from Austria this morning. I've had the Hogmouth in my watchlist for a long time. Just got a discount voucher from that dealer via an email promotion, and decided to finally pull the trigger on it. It was offered as a Brilliant Unicirculated (stempelglanz) example, and I tend to believe that. We'll see what PCGS says. I look forward to getting TrueView images with it as well, as these photos below are plainly overexposed. Needed a [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leopold_I,_Holy_Roman_Emperor']Leopold the Hogmouth[/URL] coin. This is just a minor denomination, but I'm happy to have it, it's obviously a nice Mint State example that was still quite affordable in spite of that, and the clipped planchet is kind of neat. Also wanted one of those gilt German notgeld pieces with the horse and the inflationary denominations for a while. This one was also pretty cheap- these are affordable overall. They're also nice big crown-sized things. After shipping from Europe (which the discount voucher essentially took care of), I'm in these for €123 EUR ($135.03 USD) the pair. The Hoggie was around a hundred bucks and the notgeld horsie around $35-ish.
