Very nice, Regandon. Love the 1/2 Taler reverse. Hogmouth is one ugly guy, yet what an impactful ruler and crown piece... and an overdate :smiley-cool11:

I missed the mail man today, so I need to go the post office in the A.M. to pick it up a new prized piece. It is a very low mintage 1/2Taler from Hall Germany. It has a mintage of 700 pieces. The photo posted is not mine. I will post a better pic when pick it up from the post office. Hall never minted 1/2Talers or Talers in large numbers. From what mintage records I've been able to look at. It seems the highest mintage was in 1746 with 800 Talers being minted. The best part, is that I got it for XF price. The second coin is an Austrian Taler. What makes this one Taler special to my collection, is that it is an overdate that I've not seen many of.

Always the life of the party. Such beautiful coins. I only have two coins that are professionally slabbed.  Yours should fetch a nice price should you decide to sell them someday. Germany had some really nice designs for their state and municipal coins. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks. The fun part is trying to find such low mintage coins.

Here's one that arrived today. This is 4 Soldi/60 Tornesi from CRETE (CANDIA) dating from 1625-1629. This was issued under Doge/Duke: John Corner of Venice.

Thanks 'regandon'. I was very happy with this one. As you said these are hard to find, especially in high grade. I love the combination of the Lion of St. Marco with the Greek legend on both faces.

I finally got the medal that was ordered a good while back, but the seller was very good about it, so no complaints here, really.  It even came in a neat little velvet case, I didn't expect that. :)
