I'm liking the medals as much as I do the Talers. I've got some 17th century Vatican pieces on the way.

Wow, that's pretty cool, and at 51.5mm,  probably quite hefty, too!   :ThumbsUp;

I may have asked this before, but how do you store the large pieces like this?  In a coin cabinet?

All coins and medals are stored in coin cases within a  vault.

 A pic of the coin cases I use.
