    This is wholesale pricing - take it to a dealer at that level.

    Adding more talers to the list.

    Whoa!!! This is a nice grouping of everyman coins! So much character, so much history -- and many are quite scarce too.

    Be still my heart! More stunning talers?! When it rains...it really rains! And the pics are outstanding.

    Guess I'd better hustle up a reference guide or two for these bad boys so I better know what I am looking at and learning fast, at least based on the 2 other poster's comments.

    FallGuy - thanks for the nice words. I fell into talers back in 2005 after years of collecting US coins. I started with the 1601-1801 Krause as my guide. Literally spent many hours just flipping through the hundreds of German States pages in wonder. I bought the Krause book of German coins (1501-) a couple of years ago and have also been very happy. I think those are the two best books to get you started on the theme.

    worldcoinguy,

    thanks for the references. I've been meaning to pick up a manual on foreign coins for some time. Will begin with the 1601-1800 and dig in.

    Have one for world coins and it is truly informative, but the pics are B&W and very small.

    Love the coins in this BST post.

    Prices dropped..........good value and nice eye appeal. I hate to sell, but want to put funds into different direction in the collection. PM me with questions.

    I'll send a note to my brother (Thalermaniac at NGC). Great bunch of coins and at a good price, as well!

    The Lubeck and early Saxony, from the 4/8 offering, are awesome coins. Both tough to get in any grade, let alone in such wholesome condition.

    Opportunity knocks loudly here!

    I don't think this is the optimal place to post Talers for sale given that its just us three that like them here image
  • worldcoinguyworldcoinguy Posts: 3,011 ✭✭✭✭
    You are right Zohar, but in the outside chance that sombody here is interested, I would much rather sell to a forum member instead if a stranger on ebay. Might need to go to weekly HA auction?. I am not sure that is the right answer either.

    Well, not just 3. I have watched these since they were first posted, and agree that they look very nice are very reasonably priced. I don't usually buy sight unseen but I'll take the 1630 Saxony Thaler and the 1613 Austrian Thaler. I'll pm you. And I appreciate you posting here first.

    Looks like TPRC liked the same two I did. And I made a swap offer for either one of the two he mentioned, but understand that cash takes precedence.
