    I like it. I’m hoping to get one of these, just waiting for the right one to come along.

    Never meant to, but somehow have ended up with a number of coins from Salzburg - certainly a rich city with coinage that traveled far and wide.

    My current "Box of 20"

    When we were in Innsbruck and walking down the sidewalk when I looked in a jewelry shop window and there were a number of different sizes of gold Philharmonic coins. I went in and bought a 1/2 ounce coin as a souvenir. Beautiful coin! I bought the next 3 smaller sizes and sent them into PCGS for grading. When I get them back which should be within the next 3 weeks I will share it.
