Long wait yet they arrived with enough time to be imaged and taken to the safe deposit box.

Archduke Ferdinand Karl 2 Taler ND (1646) Hall. Dav-3363, AU58 NGC. Very attractive design and variety with the lion's head on the shoulder.

Ferdinand III Taler 1638 Graz Mint. Dav-3185, MS63 NGC, silvery-gray and gold patina with strong details. Very scarce grade for this series.

image

Leopold the Hogmouth Taler 1698 Graz Mint. Dav-3235, MS63 NGC. I liked the colors and design on this one with aged patina and sharply struck details. The edge clipping (Zainede) is a bit distracting yet the overall look of this one is quite attractive for the set.

    Oh, man. A 2 Thaler! Nice image

    Great looking bunch as always, Z. I just found out that Heritage shipped my lots "Air, Manifested" which means I have to go pay a visit to the custom's office, pay the tariff, get some paperwork, and only then pick it up from FedEx.

    Awesome Hogmouth thaler. The clip is a shame, but I don't find it too distracting. I am too distracted (in a good way!) by the great toning image

    Thanks. The Graz mint pieces are more challenging to find compared with the Hall Mint types.

    Fantastic pieces Zohar. The planchet flaws on the hogmouth only add character and authenticity in my opinion.

    Wow, awesome coins. I did not even noticed the lion's head on the shoulder. I was distracted by the fierce looking bird. Very nice pick ups, worth the wait.
