Great online coin mag.

It's geared more toward world coinage but it has a lot of fascinating history and information on old coining technology.

    Great site - thanks for posting. I will have to revisit that one to spend more time.

    This article caught my eye immediately about the man that created the first taler in 1486

    mint master Bernhard Beheim the Elder

    Mdwoods. Man, I ain't seen you around since the Bush administration. Where've you been hiding? Or have I just had my head buried in the sand too long?

    Greetings LM. I've read several of your threads since my return. It's been over a year since I started posting again. I just don't post that often anymore.

    Brent,
    I found this sentence in the article relevant - "Bernhard Beheim was buried in Hall. His tomb should be a memento mori to all coin friends: no matter what big a feat you do for numismatics, one day you will be lying, too, forgotten and disregarded like Bernhard Beheim, creator of the taler."
