    The coins all have a consistent look in the images. Are they that way in hand? If so, nice imaging! If not, well, that's a different story then...

    Not sure I follow. Images are what I was able to capture with my limited setup here at home. No sharpening, enhancement etc.

    Gems!

    I happen to like both AU's in the bunch the most.
    The 1594 is amazing at AU58 - I suspect it would grade higher as it looks it - what a fabulous piece.

    The 1745 Salzburg piece has amazing eye appeal Z - and well graded too image

    Thanks Marc. I bought the 1745 piece very shortly after starting to pursue the Habsburg theme. I give the dealer lots of credit in force feeding me this one in spite of my sticker shock at the time not only given its eye appeal but scarcity.

    Jacob Ernst von Liechtenstein (1745-1747) had a very short run as bishop and this was a one year type. Very scarce.

    Stuart - wonderful piece. Thanks for sharing (and more are welcomed!).

    This type seems to be more elusive in mint state - do you have a clue as to why?

    Great pics Zohar. I will second the comments about the Salzburg piece.

    What a nice Olmutz broad flan piece. What's the Madonna taler's grade?

    Zohar: Thanks for your kind words about my Talers. In reply to your above quoted question, here are some additional photos that better depict the PL Reflectivity of this NGC MS-62 Prooflike Taler.
