Vfox Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 My newest coin, long story short I used to own one, it was stolen, now I own one again! Woot! Albertine Line, 1586, Germany-Saxony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drusus Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 its outstanding!! Did you get that from MA shops? http://www.muenzauktion.com/shops/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vfox Posted April 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 I did indeed, it was a very easy transaction, and the sellers English is quite good. Although I had to translate some emails from the website itself, with a little help from Google I was set. Thanks again for that link Drusus, I recommend them.

Uncle Charlie Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 Stolen? Haha... I kinda know what that means. I well had my entire collection riped-off once. I was going to quit the hobby, but then I sort of fell on some great deals and... Well, you know I sort of got hooked again. I think there should be a post completely dedicated to sharing tips on how to prevent theft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syzygy Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 Nice coin. The thread awakens, once again, a little yearning to dabble in a century collection - one of those would make a nice representative from the period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vfox Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Here are some other coins along the same style. I don't know a lot about these old coins, but I think these are all from the same family line, at least according to the site Drusus listed. There are dozens of other Taler/Thaler designs during this time period, all great, crude, and hand punched; it's hard to find coins made like this. I wonder how big a double taler is?
