Leopold the Hogmouth Talers (One GEM)

2 more additions for my set.
The first is one a centerpiece. I could not fully capture the luster and preservation state of this 312 year old coin. It is MS-65 graded, with deep pinkish luster on both sides.

I like WWW's comment on this aspect of the hobby as it relates to wives.
"Looking at coin porn again ?"
It's just that I got my PCGS grades.

I didnt even know silver could turn that color. It looks like chocolate copper. I like it.
Neat as heck and so relatively economical .
