I finally managed to find a 1999 reprint of Karl Friedrich Zepernick's Die Capitels und Sedisvacanzmunzen und Medaillen, originally published in 1822. The book outlines a brief history behind each of the roughly 270 German talers and medals identified by Zepernick. I can't wait to get my pocket translator and dive in!

    Nothing beats the older numismatic reference books. Well done!

    I found this copy on the Mevius website..... in the Netherlands (I believe). The owner is a nice guy. He has quite a long list of numismatic materials. The shipping is a killer to the US, but I had been looking for a copy of this for so long it didn't phase me.

    Do you already have the Davenport book on talers? Kennepohl is another you might want to check into. Those books are hard to find as well.

    I am embarrased to say I do not have a Davenport set. Whenever I need a davenport reference or a taler lookup, I have been using our fellow forum member Zohar to help me out.

    I'll check out the Kennepohl and see what I find. Thanks for the tip.

    congrats

    What constitutes a complete Davenport set may be open for discussion
