Just Arrived - 1680 Leopold the Hogmouth Taler

Zohar · February 20, 2011 4:30AM

Just arrived and I am VERY pleased. Got this at a European auction, slabbed. In hand it is remarkable. Given my limited photography skills, I will make it a point to get this and others from the collection imaged properly yet here it is. This is a tougher date, and looks nicer than my MS-65 1698 Leopold having full luster and sharpness.

1680 Leopold I (1657-1705) "The Hogmouth" Taler
DAV-3241, Moser-Tursky-704; Vogelhuber-221/II

Very nice! If you keep picking up pieces like this, you won't leave any $ for the YHVH Talers though!

Zohar -
Beautiful pickup. Between this one and the Millenium Salzburg piece you have some amazing new pieces for your collection.

Thanks Brent, this is indeed a pricey step up in which I had to let a few lower grade pieces go. 3 years ago I didn't think I would get this far within the theme set.

That is a fantastic example Zohar!
