Sword Posted December 26, 2014 Posted December 26, 2014 Wanted to get an early milled in high grade but didn't want to spend a lot of money. Hence this Hungary thaler. Looks impressive with a large diameter of 45 - 46mm. 1 Quote

Looks impressive with a large diameter of 45 - 46mm.Nice, really good eye appeal. Smitten. If you ever decide to re-invest this coin into an early milled then give me a nudge Quote

Probably the French coinage of the 19th and 20th century was superior in design to anything minted anywhere. Contentious. I know. There was a half-decent engraver of Italian origin that I may have mentioned having a liking of though, I think he trumps the lot The early Thalers are exceptional. There is a guy who collects mainly Austrian Thalers here: http://www.taleruniverse.com/the-taler-universe-collection/ Quote

davidrj Posted January 13, 2015 Author Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) I spent the morning watching coverage of the ceremony to honour the three French police officers, killed in the awful events last weekThen the postman brought this, I assume a discount token for 10 centimes, early 20th C, brass 30mmParis in happier timesDavidEdit: Kermesse is the Paris Fun Fare, so probably a slot machine token Edited January 13, 2015 by davidrj Quote
