I'll post a 1753 Swiss gold 1/4 ducat tomorrow.

And a 1752 14 Liard from Liege (Belgium) if I can find it.

After that I can offer a 1751 Netherlands Silver 10 Stuiver, then a 1750 Netherlands 14 Guilder Gold Rider.

 

Right now I am working to pay for this stuff... :ninja:

And for the hat trick, a beautiful 1750 14G Dutch Gold Rider minted in red gold.

You really see the difference when placed next to a "normal" yellow gold rider.

One of my top 10 coins... :ninja:

Thank you... :ninja:

 

I've nothing until 1745, but then can offer two beauties with that date, then two even nicer from 1743, then 1742, 1739, 1727, 1723, 1712, 1707, 1692, 1678 and a 1666 that is one of the highlights of my collection.

A well struck Polupoltinnik in amazing condition too. ;)

 

I'll scan my 1745 Swiss Half Thaler (Zurich) in anticipation of someone producing a 1746.

 

After that I want to pre-register for 1743, as I have two coins from that date that I am very proud of.

 

If you have ever looked at one of your coins and thought "How it is possible that I was able to find something so rare and beautiful as this?",

well that applies to both my 1743's...:ninja:

Very nice Dutch silver two stuiver Marianne... :ninja:

I have one almost exactly like it from 1727.

 

Marching right along, here is a nice 1745 Swiss 1/2 Taler and my favorite "officially cleaned" coin. ;)

I'll be back at 1743 with two coins that definitely belong together.

That was fast. Thank you ElleKitty for keeping with the Netherlands theme.

 

Here is a 1743 Netherlands ducat, I own several of these but only two in MS condition...

And my nicest Swiss Quarter Ducat, surely better than ANACS rates it...

And here's an oddball duit from Holland.

Just goes to show what you can do with a circulated Dutch coin, a jewelers file, two bottles of strong red wine and unlimited free time.

NO, it wasn't me. Really... :ninja:

 

I'm out until 1739.
