Hi Keith, We had interacted over my website taleruniverse.com. A better venue for Taler collectors would be on the PCGS and Cointalk forums. There are a few of us there.

Rod - very nice photography... and medals. Some I have yet to see other than Richter's book.

Some great material!

Thank you - set has expanded over time My Set Has a few duplicates yet the real challenge of recent has been picking up higher grade 19th century/early 20th century pieces.

YeOldeCollector - you picked my favorite which I bought raw yet and overpaid given the nice look and originality it has to it.
