Wow - nice!
very nice Zohar! I'm beginning to like talers much more now
Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.
Very cool and in amazing shape! Great get!
Neat coin! I had that on my watch list and very glad I did not try and compete. Zohar are the bottom photos yours in hand?
My current "Box of 20"
Top photo is from the goldberg Millennia Sale, bottom is from the Polish auction house. Scratches on old holder which will likely be replaced.

Love the reverse court of arms. So scomplex design within a small space.
I finally had a chance to look at this on my pc rather than a phone.....a big screen certainly does that piece proper justice. I agree with doppeltaler - you can get lost in the details of the reverse. You better send that to me for safe keeping.
